Helpful Advice for North Acton Drivers
- Keep a spare key in a secure place separate from your main set—especially if you commute via North Acton Station.
- If your fob intermittently fails, replace the battery promptly to avoid immobiliser sync issues.
- After a key is lost or stolen, consider reprogramming to disable the missing key for security.
- Avoid DIY door opening methods that can bend frames or damage airbags/locks; it often leads to higher repair costs than a professional unlock.
