Default crap i lost my key

ok i seem to have misplaced my key. Car still starts and when i tried to lock it from the outside, it just beeps. So the key has to be in the car right?

Uh oh. lol. Yes the key is most likely in the car somewhere, check all the crevices, especially between seat and center consol. Once I cleaned out my car and found lipsticks, coins, a pen, all kinds of crap down in there.

Hmm....don't know about that. So if you don't have the second key, then car won't start? That's the only way to be sure if the key is in your car or not. I thought you meant you were doing this already.

Your key battery is new so it's fairly strong right now, I'd have it at least 10 feet away from the car just to be sure.

If only there were some signal tracer fancy method to track it...or magnets to attract it...worse case bring it to the dealer for them to search it.

The crazy thing is I am sure this will be a problem with all these new cars. The mAzda miata key is even smaller for instance.

So Lexus didn't put a piece of liner there to catch things when they fall? They have a liner there in the LS 430, it catches stuff all the time
