[Martin_172]

seriously though hope you get it back if thats what you want or a decent pay out if you dont!

 

[Chili Red]

How you get it back..

I assume the keys were stolen in a burglary?

 

[Tiababy]

Did they take the keys or are they now managing this like they are with 05+ BMWs?

 

[Tez.]

I'm not far away will have a ride round later.

[Matt W]

Sorry to see it

I left my 172 in Selly oak quite a few times, worried the entire time!

 

[Tiababy]

How are they doing bmws?

Not good mate hope you get it back.

Basically they are getting into them without setting the alarms off, coding a key into the system and driving them off.
There are 2 threads running on pistonheads regarding it. One in GG and one in the BMW forum and a lot of BMWs have been stolen this way recently.

Seriously?? How can they get in to them without setting off alarms?

 

[lemonnobby]

They use a scanner to scan the key as you lock the car. use that code and job done.
There was a program about it..

I hate reading about cars being vandalised / stolen. I cant believe there are people like that in the world tbh, such lowlife scum! I hope you get the car back safe and sound mate

 

[Jonathan]

300 cars stolen every day from the most recent statistics I could find. There's a lot of scum out there !

 

[Advikaz]

Worrying!

 

[sparxman]

sorry to hear that mate hope you get it back in one piece soon! got a fcuk off motorbike chain from the seat frame to the steering wheel on mine, might be a deterent to the scum?

 

[andywa]

Any news at all mate?

 

[OL11TOM]

Would using the door lock buttons on the handle circumvent this security flaw?

+1 Good question....

 

[lemonnobby]

I think they both can as it sends a signal what ever

best to keep your car locked in the garage when not using, trackers only become live when you report it stolen, it does not take long to drive to a dock into a container then its gone, if you loose a keycard the renault maindealer has to reset the code in the new card and they charge for it, this means someone must have access to this software, as i understand these cars are deadlocked etc so i would contact renault uk and ask them?

 

[James1470]

With our trackers we have on or vans we can load up a app on the computers or our iphones and see where the vans are, there wired into the cars harnesses and are always on, constantly active.

 

[Craig.]

James thats like the one ive just had fitted its always active & my phones alerts me if the car moves.

thats good but have you fitted that tracker on your car then, will the app wake you up, if they can get the key code they can disable a tracker, they have these on lorries but they rarely find them unless they have been dumped minus the cargo, nothing better then metal gates with a padlock and a bull mastiff:approve:

That happened with my dad's mate's Focus RS 2 days after he bought it. He paid like £20,000 cash for it and never got it back. CCTV in the Asda carpark it was taken from saw a Land Rover pull up 5 mins after he'd gone in, a guy got out, opened the door of the RS, a minute later they were all gone and the cars dissappeared.

Hope you get the car back, can't imagine how gutting it must be

 

[Tiababy]

Using the door locks, from what I understand, sends out a much weaker 'just checking you have they key' Sensor signal compared to the stronger signal sent from the key to the car to command it to lock.

My uncle has a key jammer and using the door locks it still locked but when I tried to use the keycard it jammed the signal and didn't lock. So it does show they function in different ways.

 

[Paul172sport]

has car security really slowed down this much, 10-12 years ago my clifford alarm had anti scan and grab and would use a different signal each time to prevent just this, surely 10 years down the line theres better??

how much, where did you get it from and how easy was it to fit/sync to your phone?

 

[Gandi69]

Oh for a hydraulic clutch! could then fit a mech-lock system
