When I picked up my '05 MINI Cooper from the dealer, I was given two remote keys and a wallet (or I was told "emergency" key). I was told that the "emergency" key was to be used only in an emergency and that it was set to deactivate (or not work) after 5 or so uses.
Does anyone know whether this is in fact the case? I know of others with such a key (e.g., for a BMW) for whom the key has worked regularly, much more than 5 times. I would rather be able to keep this with me to use in emergencies without the "fear" of it deactivating at some point.
Thanks!
