Either way it's definitely not because of my cell phone. I'm thinking it has something to do with old and new sensors, like stated above, or one of them failing. I read in another thread that if one of them fails then they all don't work.

I've never heard something similar
If the frequencies are similar YES but the difference is huge and it is impossible

Both devices May be using the same IF (intermediate frequency) causing the problem.

Interesting,
Because, when I have my cell phone in the same pocket where my CA key - I can't open door. As soon as I removed phone from pocket - no problems at all to open or closed doors.

I do not want to enter into a discussion, to me it never happened
Phone and key always in the same pocket
In the Audi works much engineers and of smart people to think of it
Frequency is 315MHz in America because of the law in the rest of the world-434.42Mhz 433.92
Good luck
