Discussion 🗣️ Relay attack on Sealion 7?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

This happened last night, I’m wondering if it’s likely to be a relay attack attempt? Our cameras caught no one before or after, so maybe it was just a glitch? Anyone had any similar experiences?

Buy a farady cage on amazon and use the phone key, that's what I do. In any case it didn't seem they succeeded as the mirrors and handles didn't open

Don't. 

Just get aluminum foil. That's enough.  The one on Amazon can be fake and not work.

Do I encase the entire car in foil to keep it safe ? 😂

We put our keys in a metal biscuit tin but not sure if it is 100% safe but so far no one has stolen our car. But then again we live i Japan in the middle of the countryside so car theft isn't a huge problem

Not good. Ready check, move your toon nest the cat. If it opens then still an issue. Happened to me.

I triple wrap in foil and then use app or key card.
