I often get a red warning message after I start my car with keyless go the says "Chip Card Not Recognized!", yet the car starts and I normally carry the card in my right front pants pocket. Perhaps it is a low battery in the card and I intend to check that at the dealer when next there, but it is a bit annoying. I am interested in knowing if others have experienced the same warning message.

I've seen it the odd time -before- I start the car, ie: it takes two tries. Never seen it after a successful start though. And not in red.

Same thing happens to me, my last cl500 2003 did it to. But my 2003 sl500 did not have this happen??????????

This weekend I got a message to check the battery in the chip card, so the problem is probably just that the battery has had too low a charge. This happended to me with the key when my 02 CL500 was delivered. My second chip card works much better.

Yeah, both of mine do the same thing, I have two keyless go cars. Just push the button again and it will likely work. How about the passenger side headrest having a mind of it's own? More amusement from Mercedes Benz.

I thought that it was my imagination about the passenger side headrest and have not had the inclination to mess with it, but it has moved.
I really should read the owner's manual more carefully about the keyless Go feature because I am sure that it will do more than just open the doors and start the car.
