I've just posted this on the XE Forums but for info of anybody on here.

If you have keyless and use the Faraday pouches, if you have had them some time it might be worth giving them a test.
I have seen a couple of posts elsewhere that ones in use for some time might be starting to lose their effectiveness.
Just tried my regular one and the car did actually open after 4-5 tries of the handle but wouldn't lock using the button on the handle so not 100% effective.
So mine will be replaced soon.
In the meantime I'm using the spare (had a pack of two) and that is working perfectly.
It might be the case that the coating on the "gold" pocket might wear a bit thin after regular use.
For the price I paid and considering he amount of use I'm still happy to order a new one.
Worth checking for anybody who uses the Faraday bags/pouches.
