Remote only works in the afternoon?

Well, it works in the morning too, but only 10% of the time. I had to hold it very close to the door handle and if lucky, I can see the door lock pushed up very faintly to allow opening.

This happens around 7am, but once I get home around 6pm, remote works just fine. The car registers remote click from a few feet away.

Does anyone have the same issue? Or help me trouble shoot the issue? Thanks!

You either have faulty key fob batteries or you have a more serious problem with the central locking system---the later takes factory diagnostic software or equal to locate the potential fault!!
