My 330d stolen sat week but still have the keys
My car was stolen last week and I have all the keys.
How was this done I'm asking myself and anyone who may have suffered the same.

Sad to hear that.
I thought you were very up to speed about BMWs. It has been covered about 10million times on this forum, every other car forum and even tv in recent months. Now it has been gone a week it is unlikely to be seen again. Hopefully a good settlement is all you can hope for now. |

Shit, another one? Take it you hadn't done any obd mods?
Hope the other mods were declared or that could get expensive.

I didn't have the obd port disabled for that reason. I have now got a new obd port ready for if I get another bmw but with them easily knicked and cracked wheels I may have a change. The jag xf looks nice.

What I should of added is no broken glass as I'm aware of the obd and the car was locked

Gutted for you Chris. I know the amount of work you had done to get it as you wanted. I also know how particular you are with your cars. I hope you get this sorted soon. Get another one and stay on here.

It's clear that pre 2007 cars are just as vulnerable as post 2007 cars are,but BMW are only covering cars up to 5yrs old. Regardless of age,if the car has a fob + push button start,the OBD needs moving,if only for peace of mind,IMO.

I was shocked when Chris told me last week as that a lot of time, money and effort went into that car.

That sucks
I figured it was BS cars pre-2007 where unaffected. Why would the security get worse? I am also sceptical about 2011 cars and onwards being unaffected. Would not be surprised to read a 2011/2012 car being taken by the same way. If there was no broken glass, I reckon they will have forced the lock with a screw driver and lowered your windows. Reached in and programmed new key... I have a second ODB port ready to install. Hidden the original already, and going to install the fake in its place. Hopefully that way they would assume nothing is amiss and that there machine is broken. If its missing they may just start looking for it... |

OP, you must be mistaken, afterall BMW assured us that no car older than March 2007 could be stolen using this method... surely they can't have lied AGAIN?
Absolute bollocks and now a 3rd lie from BMW (1st = "BMW wheels don't crack, owners must be driving them down pot holes", 2nd = "BMW's can't be stolen using the OBD method", 3rd = "Only BMW's from 3/2007 to 2010 can be stolen using the OBD method". Can you call BMW and tell them you have had your car stolen in this way? What have the Police said? |

Scares the crap out of me too!
My cars parked up at a hotel near Heathrow.... or it was when I left it two weeks ago. They wanted me to leave the key so they could 'move it if necessary'. I told them bollocks, and kept the key with me. I hope its still there when I get back.

they would not confirm or deny wether cars older than 2007 could be stolen but as watchdog was aired 5 weeks ago they should have a security fix in 3 weeks but they can`t confirm what models it will cover. i accused them of covering it up and hoping it would go away! I may speak to watchdog myself. The police rang me this morning to say they have fianalised the case and nothing was being picked up on the amrp cameras which i find hard to believe,there aren`t many blue m sports driving around in the 7 hour time slot in which it was parked up,stolen and reported.

ANPR cameras only read number plates and you cannot search for a model of vehicle on it. if the plates were removed which they probably were the cameras are rendered useless.

I have personally tested pre-2007 and you can get the 'sensitive information' through OBD when car is parked, and locked. And as hotcoupe mentioned, BMW is trying to cover 5 years old car as most of car manufacturers do under the good will gesture. I hope insurance company settles it reasonably well.
