I believe BMW has a firmware update [details here] to fix the OBD port when your car is locked. So would advise you to get that booked it asap. Have really lost faith in BMW now, which is such a shame because i loved the M3. To make matters worst, BMW warranty won't even give me a refund for the remainder of the 6 months I had left as I made a claim this year in May. Part of their policy apparently.

Now looking to get a C63 AMG.

Here's some footage from my CCTV.

Part 1 - Cloning my key!




Part 2 - Taking my car!

Hello,

Really sorry for your loss. How did the robbers open the car door? I thought the deadlock system prevents the door from opening, or they have another method for that.

This is really bad I feel for you!
