I always do a 2 push on my key fob but i did notice that no matter where i put the fob in the house it will unlock the car . i read that in my area the car thieves are using a device that searches your fob and activates it .Don't know if anyone else does this but I always push my lock button on key fob Twice quickly when parked especially overnight, as this alone disables my Keyless Go, so key won't be sending signal all the time stopping someone cloning it plus saving the battery. Push unlock Twice quickly reverts back. Remember to do the spare key too !!
I put my fobs in metal container for extra security too.
Double click doesn't disable my keyless (2013 SL350). I do use a faraday pouch though.Don't know if anyone else does this but I always push my lock button on key fob Twice quickly when parked especially overnight, as this alone disables my Keyless Go, so key won't be sending signal all the time stopping someone cloning it plus saving the battery.

Double-clicking the lock button prevents the fob transmitting and so prevents keyless entry either with the key close to the car or via a relay attack. No need for a Faraday bag if this is done with both keys.
Hate to break it to you but it absolutely does disable the keyless entry.
Stop the disinformation: It’s nothing to do with deadlocks.
Well that's certainly not how my last 3 cars have behaved, so you are incorrect.
what year was that from?
When you say Metal Tin what type of tin are you talking of, a Tin is not a reliable thing to use. I would suggest that you put your key in the Tin, walk up to the car and try and open it before you put tour trust in a TinDon't know if anyone else does this but I always push my lock button on key fob Twice quickly when parked especially overnight, as this alone disables my Keyless Go, so key won't be sending signal all the time stopping someone cloning it plus saving the battery.

I don't know when they started to be like that but mine is 2019 and I know it is true for that car
I have mine in a coffee "tin". Looks like stainless, but could be anything except mild steel cos its non-magnetic. Works when up beside the car until you remove the lid.

I read that the key should be isolated from the metal of the 'cage' - probably the housing of the fob is enough to do that I guess. But I keep mine in a plastic pot which I've wrapped in aluminium foil, so that the key only touches the interior plastic surface. The removable lid is also wrapped, and makes contact with the rest of the pot when closed. It passes the tin test.I have mine in a coffee "tin".
