Weird how is Pickles able to auction off a stolen car?
Glad you got the insurance money and hope it was enough. I must admit if someone stole my car I'd probably not want it back. Might never be the same. |

I put an electronic fuel restriction valve on the fuel line just after the filter which is coded to activate with my garage door opener, and no-one can activate that without my door opener, which is on my keys all the time.

Doesn't the car get flagged as stolen? Or does Pickle doesn't GAF about auctioning stolen cars? Can't they trace the history if it was sold to someone else before it hit the auctions?

Well if they paid out his son then the insurance company owns the car and they use pickles to recoup some $ back. The online check will show car was stolen as far as I know. No?

I hope someday..Someone could invent a device like a Killer Ignition Switch where in you have to punch a number in a keypad before you could start your car..just like the one I saw on the movie Transporter...wishful thinking.

I got a device called a black jack that does just this. Just need someone with the electronic hardware skills to figure out how to make it work with the N54. Happy to se it to someone if they want to make a project of it

I suppose I should have elaborated. I have a separate button on my remote to activate the valve and the valve is also under all the under car plastic ferring ,so not visable. Obtaining the garage door code wont activate the valve.
