Default Stolen S4 AND TT

Well, ****ty news....
bro's 2000 s4 and fathers 2000 tt stolen today at 11:05 am...
anyone care to guess where....NJ but of course.
2nd time bro's car stolen, first time happened last March. After my bro got his car stolen the first time, audi said there's nothing you can do about it....it's a shame, over the past 10 years my family had 5 audi's...and after this, I'm wondering if things may change.
Wonder what the damage is gonna be (obviously missing headlights) this time around.

I thought Audi's had anti-theft devices in the keys? Or is it the newer models?

Because they KNOW that this is happening, and they are doing nothing about it. Well, 2002+ have the immobilizer installed, but that doesnt do much good for people who have earlier years. A way to fix this would be if they had a recall to add some sort of system like this. It's harder to steal a 1990 buick than an audi!!! come on, all you need is a drill and a screwdriver....that has a lot to do with audi

Default How about this: persons caught stealing cars will have their right hand

cut off and thrown in prison...with a cell next to a guy named Tiny.

Default Correct. I recall hearing that a Porsche 911 turbo was stolen...

using a crane to carry it over a fence. The car was then loaded onto a flatbed truck and driven away. No immobilizer would have prevented that theft.

Cordially,
