I'll give this a try as well. It seems to be slightly better over time but it's still not great. The dealership contacted me as a check in and I mentioned it to them, they're going to check with the aftercare team to see if it's been reported before.

Yeah the handle works completely fine, it's the auto approach / walk away locking and unlocking that's not very reliable. Today I thought it had sorted itself out, it worked 9 times and as I got home failed to lock as I walked down my drive. I'm going to swap my keys over and see if there's a difference. If not I'll take it back to the dealer.

I should have probably mentioned its only two weeks old so I'd hope it's not something like that. If it truly is a fault I'll need to take it back to the dealer but before I do I just want to work out if I'm misunderstanding how it should work or if I'm doing something incorrect.

I just got a new facelift Octavia and sprung for the keyless entry option, however when approaching or leaving the car it doesn't always lock or unlock. About 1 in 5 times it will just not do anything. The handle sensors always work. I thought it might be when I had my phone in the same pocket but after a few tests it happens regardless. Does anyone else have this issue? I haven't tried the other key yet but just wondered if anyone else has experienced the same thing?
