Why would you want it that far way? 10 feet aren't good enough a distance for you? I usually hit the button right around 5-10 feet and immediately go for the door handle as I get close to the vehicle. I couldn't bear the fact that my car's open from afar, I just couldn't wait that long to get into the car - especially on an Audi A4!

 

^^^ totally agree and how long would it take you to get to the car while the thief makes off with anything in the car lol some security system that would be

 

I'd like to have a bit better range for the fact that sometimes I get out and walk away and want to make sure I locked it up but I'm more than the range from the car and have to walk back. So I personally wouldn't use the unlock from far away but to make sure it's locked up.

 

its a big thing in the UK and an insurance loss, seen many walk away and flick the button and think the cars is locked ( its the duty of the insured to ensure its locked ) complacency I call it

 

i agree with can'tdrive55, i wanna make sure plus my FOB buttons are a bitch. i rly hve to push them hard lol

 

then use the key/fob and check your doors

 

complacency has no boundaries

 

So I found this thread and looked but couldn't find this exact wire up there. I looked under the rear seat and see about 5 different viable options to be it.

Does anyone know the exact locations on a 2001? Or which locations it could be?

 

It should be exactly where it is in that DIY thread. Look again, and if not then look in the C pillar behind the dome light trim. Thats where mine is but I have pre 99.5 yours should be under the car like in the thread.

 

So I went out and found that indeed my antenna was under the bumper and kinda hidden. But anyways HOLY ****!! This worked so freaking amazingly well I couldn't believe it. Before I was getting the whole 5~10ft thing but damn, now I can be like 50+ft away with ease. I even tried it from my basement and I was able to get it to lock being about 10ft up and then another 20ft away from that! I'm thinking that I'll be all set from now on... LOL [8D]
