Dosn't surprise me.


Anything that is wireless can be hacked with a little bit of time from someone who knows what they are doing. The real question is what is going to happen in 10-20 years when BMW stop's support for these cars, and the technology is old allowing for anyone to use it.

starting cars with bluetooth :pimp:

If this works then why did the thieves have to manually push the car away? Were they just trying to be quiet?

Most likely trying to be quiet/stealthy.

So, you say my car will be.....GONE IN 60 SECONDS!?

I died. Well done hahaha

Okay so what the hell are they doing?

The trunk is open, now what?

There was another story of people janking the code the key sends to the car and using it to get in. That was on any BMW w/remote unlock. This is a new way entirely.

Nope same old news from months ago. Just revisited by BBC.

Its dated September 12th.

Look at the date of the video. 3-31-2012

Wow. My father just picked up an E90 M3 recently (our first vehicle with the new-fangled key/remote/theft device) and I couldn't help but notice that unlike traditional remotes, there was no 'panic' or 'alarm' button to be found.

Hold the trunk open button down in the vicinity of the car.
