Default NJ car theives try for another Audi, and are surprisingly stopped.....

I guess those theives in NJ are so dumb they didnt realize they were trying to steal an S8 not an S4. I guess they saw the wheels and badge and probably thought it was an S4. They did the standard door punch routine, but were then foiled by the immobilizer... I guess for 75k you get an immobilizer. For the 40k original price cars, who cares....<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a8/msgs/59983.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/a8/msgs/59983.phtml</a</li></ul>

I'll tell you about the 150 second remote mod if you are a VERY long-time AW follower.

Hi Craig,

I'm wondering if you sent out my SS. I got your email that it was sent out on Friday, but still haven't received it. Maybe I am just too anxious to get it!!

thanks.
