-After the locks stop, remove the key from the ignition switch On your key fob you will need to press and relase both the 'Lock' and 'Unlock' buttons simultaneously.

Then simply press and release the 'Unlock' button and open the driver's door. That's it. All doors should unlock now the first time you press unlock. If not, try it again, it may take a couple of times to get it programmed. Note: If you would like to return to driver's door unlock from unlock all doors you need to follow the same procedure except press the 'Lock' button instead of the 'Unlock' button in the last step

This hasn't worked for me yet

Well? I read about nobody noticing a difference... Hummm... does anybody actually keep track of what they put in and what they get out? 
87 average 16.6 (10% ethanol)
89 average 17.8 (?% ethanol)
91 average 18.2 (mostly 0% ethanol)
Not exact science or environmentally controlled results and differences include 2 values (octane & ethanol) that vary. I don't notice drivability difference between 89 & 91 but 87 feels "not quite right" to me. 

My conclusion, until I have or see real data that proves otherwise, is that I'll run the recommended 91 octane and with 0% ethanol as a first choice even if I have to go a couple miles out of my way to get it.

I don't know if 87 octane would actually "hurt" anything, but numbers tell me it's better at 89 or above.
