Lane assist

My dealer it telling me that as long as I have the fob and either the key or the digital key then the tracker will work. I'll have to test it.

Yes it will work - I only use the key and not my phone. It is a good tracker and now they disable the car without the fob its definitely an improvement of the 2025 system.

When you sell or return the car it has to remain on the vehicle you cannot transfer it to another car. Vodafone will give you a credit for any unused subscriptions against another tracker.

I have a Vodafone tracker arranged by the dealer. I’ve just received a replacement fob as the battery in mine had an intermittent issue. You’ll see a earlier posts by myself and CHP regards forgetting the fob - the car will not allow selection of forward or reverse but very alarmingly will show a message saying something like system failure, arrange dealer !

I'm in the Netherlands, but I think the official tracker fitted by the dealer is Vodafone still, so I guess it'll be the same.

I guess it's a good idea to carry a spare battery for the fob then?!

I actually think it's a good idea that it won't start without the fob, as in the past I've had cars where I've forgotten the fob when I've driven off, only to receive a phone call five minutes later asking me where my car is. It avoids this embarrassment. I guess the issue is not knowing what that message means in the first place.

Much better, although seeing red circle of death after 2 lemon was a very unpleasant surprise

The fob has a built in battery, I’m pretty sure you can’t replace it. They provided a new fob when my intermittent issue first occurred.
