So still deciding on the purchase of a new/ish touareg but am faced with a dilemma. First world I know but I do a fair bit surfing and stash my key on the car when I am at the beach. Don't really like to put key in a towel and take it down to the sand. So wondering if there is a way around the whole keyless entry thing with the 1.5m or whatever proximity range. I know you can pull the little key out and use that but if the fob is stashed on the car anyone can open it.

Any ideas short of making a lead box wrapped in asbestos wrapped in unobtainium?

Similarly i do fair bit of kayaking and dont like to take the key with me.
I have a secure lock that can store the key inside and can be locked to the underside of the touareg.
I have tried opening the doors but it is far enough from the sensors/doors so vehicle cannot be unlocked.
Simple.

Singh, is that one of those giant padlocks that you stash you key in and has a pin code? I wonder if your system is the same as the new touaregs being your car is almost 10 yrs old? Just found this with a quick search. Interesting the pouch idea. RA Mayes | RF Shielded Container for Proximity Keyless Entry FOB - Store your spare FOB in your car
