Key fob fault and bumper antenna on Mini Paceman Diesel 2014

Hello, I drive a 2014 Mini Paceman Diesel with 81000 km on the clock and am currently having problems with my key fob. Could it be that the antenna in my bumper is broken? Has anyone else had this problem and how was your experience with your mechanic? I didn't have a good impression last time. Thanks in advance for your experience and tips.

Hi, I can relate to what you are experiencing. I have a 2017 Mini Clubman petrol model and had a similar problem. My key fob suddenly stopped working properly. During my last inspection at the garage, they found that it wasn't the aerial that was the problem, but the key fob itself. It had to be replaced so that the aerial was not affected. It was annoying, but not a serious problem. Hope this helps you!

Hey, thanks for your quick feedback. It looks like I have something wrong with the key fob. Can you tell me how much it cost you and whether any other problems have arisen since then? That would be really helpful for me. Thank you in advance!

Hey, sure, I can tell you. Well, it was a bit different for me. They discovered that my antenna in the bumper was defective. But the guys at the garage quickly got to grips with it. The whole thing only cost me €255. Everything has gone smoothly since then. No further inconveniences or problems. Hope that helps you!

Great, thanks for the info! That reassures me a bit now. I'll probably pay a visit to the garage and see what they say. Nice to hear that everything has been running smoothly since the repair. Hopefully I'll be just as lucky. Thanks again for your help!
