  1. Apologies if this has been requested many times before but I have just bought 2009 318D ( E90 i think) touring. All seems well but the key fob does not always open the car, i can use the manual key and everything starts / runs fine but obviously I do not want to keep having the alarm go off when i want to drive. So far I have replaced the battery in one of the fobs, but whilst this initially seemed to work , but today it has again not let me in, so I am guessing i have a problem with the car rather that the fob. Sometimes i see a battery symbol on the dash, does this imply the main battery is old and needs replacing. Also , possibly unrelated, i cannot get into the boot sometimes , any help/advise much appreciated. Thanks Steve
