There was a crash involving a dustbin lorry outside our work and the driver mounted the lorry covering half the pavement with the exhaust pumping straight into the main doorway of our work. He didn't even bother to knock the engine off.

Loads of Police were there with a partial road block and I went out and asked the first officer I saw if he could tell the driver if he could turn the engine off and he just said "You tell him, he's over there". They literally could not give a fuck.

It works on my 17 plate F31 - you need to touch the key fob on the door glass right by the door mirror and press the lock button. Try it in a few places & it should work - it can be quite hit & miss

As i said earlier it worked fine on 16plate LCI but 18plate LCI - no.

This works a treat on my '18 F36. It's beeped once or twice when I've put the remote lower down or closer to the edge of the glass. If I put it right in the middle of the drivers window it works every time.
