    I use the faraday shields you have mentioned and a steering wheel lock. I have also covered the vehicle vin number at the windshield location so that it cannot be scanned and used to program a key fob for entry by the thief. They can do this in a mall parking lot and use an air tag to track your vehicle to your driveway. and use the fob they have programmed.
  • Car manufacturers should improve the key fob by simply put an on/off button on the device. There are other methods, for example a one minute timeout on the key fob. To reactive it, push any button or penetrate in the narrow zone around the car where you can open the door. Or simply stop emitting signal as soon as the key fob exits the zone. All of these methods would have the side benefit of saving by much the time life of the battery.

    I can't understand, knowing that this keyless entry is fundamentally flawed, they continue putting the in new car... this is called devolution..
  • @jhardman4534
    Wrap the fob in aluminum foil, works great and my FORD dealer agrees that this is a method also.

    My 2024 Civic was stolen this weekend. What a nightmare! I had no idea it was that easy šŸ˜ž
  • ā¤I put a ghost immoboliser on the wifes 340d. Its quite handyas you can still start the car but as soon as you put it into gear it shuts down unless you have entered your personal code first
  • @Mrch33ky
    I use an aluminumized mylar bag - from cough drops. Tried it out next to the car and when folded over it blocks the signal completely. At home I keep the keys in the bag with a binder clip holding it closed which also allows it to be hung on a hook for convenience. A crisps bag would also work if you don't mind the greasy interior. Which is why I use a cough drop bag. Cheers.

    Wheel clamp works well. Itā€™s a very obvious sign, and takes time and effort to remove. I always remember policemen saying that criminals prefer an easy life, so hopefully they move on.
  • @mz4ever123
    It is good to test the tin & Faraday pouches regularly as the materials can degrade & leak signal, heard of people still losing their cars due to their Faraday pouches leaking signal over time. Also worth getting a steering lock to further slow or deter a thief.
  • Place the keys in the fridge. I know it sounds weird but it works
  • @2WildBengals
    I heard of one guy that took his vehicle to a clever mechanic that was able to make some kind of a Kill Switch that worked off a Back Seat Safety Belt Buckle. You couldnā€™t start the vehicle unless you buckled that particular seat belt together first. A clever idea though Iā€™m sure some would find it a bit annoying. I wish I had something like that, soIā€™m going to ask a Buddy who works at the dealership I bought my vehicle from who he knows that might do such things. That and a Steering Wheel Lock-ā€¦.. Slows them down.
  • @michaelc6325
    The key on my Ford goes to sleep after 40 seconds to prevent the relay attack. you can also disable the keyless entry on the actual car if you look in the settings.
  • Great tips and all three are ones I use. Thereā€™s another more expensive option called SEER which is supposedly a fix for the relay problem.
  • @stevegoodwin5841
    I do both plus a "Club brand" steering lock used and the "Cop Lock" on the brake pedal with plunger to firewall.
  • @jimjackson4256
    Of course taking the battery out of your spare key works pretty well too.
