Question about Keyless Go

I know this is not important at all...but was just curious. Why is the Keyless Go button on the gear selector different on Canadian vehicles than on US spec cars? (I've got some wierd symbols, while the US spec cars get the Start/Stop writing)

Probably so that they don't have to produce different models for the Frech speaking parts of Canada? Wierd symbols are universal (though maybe not understandable!), whereas English is not. A French merc I was in last week had the same odd symbols.

Cool Keyless go

I too had this problem after few thousand miles on the clock , but this happend whilst in my own garage - it may have been a faulty signal as this has not come to light again.

The keyless go must be the best option I have went for as its so cool to walk up to the car & just open or lock the door & watch people faces with stunned looks !
