I had a 2001 GTI and it similarly only reliably worked within probably 25' of the vehicle. In contrast, my 2017 F150 fob works as much as 150-200' from the vehicle. I tremendously appreciate this, especially with remote start to warm it in the winter.

It's occasionally handy to be able to unlock the doors to let someone into the car from elsewhere in the world. Eg friend left their bag in the car but I'm not around to let them in.
