    Would you disable keyless entry for security reasons?

    Would you disable remote entry for security reasons? As there are known ways to steal the signal etc?

    No. If someone wants my car, I’d far rather they took it quietly off the drive rather than smashing their way into my house to get at the keys. Not a chance that I would ever consider disabling it.

    Drives: 2020 MY20 HSE Luxury SDV6 in Eiger Grey/Glacier
    Departed: 2019 MY20 HSE Luxury SDV6 in Carpathian Grey/Glacier, 440i, 320d, Toyotas, Mondeo, Citroen BX amongst others

    2022 Discovery SDV6 HSE Carpathian Grey

    From MY2019, new key technology has been introduced making keyless relay theft much more difficult.
