I wish you were right Tim but I have evidence that the canbus can be accessed on latest LRs without entering the vehicle obd port and the read only KVM is vulnerable so it affects all years |

A short funny story for you to have a laugh at. Just after we purchased the vehicle, my wife, on first time out, locked it doing the double press on fob, she then checked the door, and it opened, she continued for five minutes before realising that if you have the keyless fob on you, you cannot check that the doors are locked, other than looking through window to see button position on the door open lever. |

I've just bought this on Amazon based on recommendation of another LR owner https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00QIE...&psc=1

I maybe a bit thick here, but if you never use the buttons on your key fob and only use the handle button to lock the doors would thieves be able to still "grab" the frequency channel of your key?? I take it they hang around nearby and wait for you to press the buttons on the fob then have a device which logs it. Is this correct? I never leave the keys with anyone other than main dealer so would my car be safe? |

I like many here have been under the impression that due to low range of keyless entry it was safer than pressing button remote however the scumbags can now boost the signal from your house to car making it believe you are stood next to it with key |

Good man, thank you very much. For the price on Amazon it's well worth purchasing a couple of those pouches just to be double safe. |

This is a great heads up as Radlett is about a mile from me.

The Amazon one which is a very good price is only a 90db RF signal blocker, there are much better ones up to 110db Blocking, but anything around 100db will stop reception and cloning etc even if left next to back door.
