some one stole my s5
 

Moved to proper section, the classifieds is not for you to post threads on stolen cars. Good luck finding it.

Dude I don't know if it could be this far north but I saw a fc like that going south bond in between Everett and Lynnwood on Thursday around 1 PM. I think had some tint.

So, a tip.... kinda late, but for other FC owners...

I find pulling my EGI fuse helpful. :) Yea, it is a pain to pull the EGI fuse everytime I park for work or something, but... it keeps my car from getting taken.

If you wanted, tie the EGI fuse into a switch.... then, switch off when you get out. The car will "try" to start. But, with no fuel, it won't work. :)

If you go the switch route.... hide it really well and tell no one. Not even friends.

I am going to be working on a proximity device for my ignition. The core will be built into my megasquirt. But, basically an RF key fob w/ an inductive power supply and RF transmitter w/ encoded signals. So, if the key fob isn't near the ignition, it won't start. I know a lot of newer cars are using this, I just want it in mine. :) Gotta tie it into the ECU so that it isn't bypassed easily.... I guess if they brought a mobile solder gun.... some wires... solder, etc. hahah.

Bummer. I got an eye on bremerton / silverdale for ya. :)

Even easier- Just put in a fuel cut switch, relay is under your dash where your right knee is. Really simple and effective mod.

ohh dang that sucks! ill keep a look out

i will keep a look out ^_^

dudes, i got this thing called alarm, and my sensor is on highest proximity level.

man thats a bummer.

That sucks man Ill keep my eyes peeled for you. I know what it looks like so hopefully I can help.

can you post some pics?

license plate number? anything really unique about that car?

ill keep my eye out aswell

LoL. For me, pulling a fuse is much better then an alarm system which I can bypass quicker then anything. :)

Alarms are nice and can make you feel safer. But.... great way to take someone's car.... walk up, set off their alarm. once it is turned off, set it off again. Then they will turn it off again. Keep doing it until they get annoyed and just turn it off. :)

Another thing that is done a lot around here, is sometimes just bash the window, pop the hood, disconnect the battery, then rip the dash out and bypass the ignition cut on the alarm. I haven't seen any off the shelf alarms that you can by that actually kill the ECU. Most of them just kill the ignition switch by bypassing it. Which, is really easy to get around. :) Crack surround, and cut some wires.

Once you're on the road, no worries. Get to a garage, and start parting it out. :)

Anywho, definitely dont rely purely on a car alarm. In the police department, we saw a ton of cars stolen w/ alarm systems armed. It's kinda like having a lot on your door at home. Yea, it keeps most honest people honest. But, if someone really wants to get in, they just break a window and unlock.

Or, maybe saying it's like having ADT.... which is a joke too. haha. Any home alarm system is alright, but it can be bypassed too. :) I know, I love security stuff.

Damn.. Well post some photos. I will keep my eye out also.. A vin or plate would help.

Sleep passenger with a shotgun...

Sucks bro, any unique parts we should be watching craigslist for?

I've had a car stolen, it's infuriating.

Yea its even worse when someone breaks into your home. And you missed them by 3 minutes with a loaded pistol. Try that on for size

yea i had my EG jacked not to long ago i know how ya feel man, i'll definitely keep an eye out. hopefully they are just out for a joyride and dont know what a rotary is and have no use for parts.

saw a red S5 w/ flat hood & L fender today 85th @ aurora by the north end of greenlake, going westbound on 85th(didn't see the plates) approx 2:55 PM. are the headlight covers flat black too? what kind of wheels?

His wheels are two tone Konig's, black/gunmetal and polished accents and I think they are 17 or 18 inch

found my car thanks for all the support guys see you friday at the meet

What condition is/was it in?

took my subs, tools and every thing with any kind of value in all about $1000 in stuff

that is a damn shame. congrats on getting it back though.

but last night they came back and broke in to it again but lucky for me i don't keep shit in there but having to clean the mess blows

wow... are you serious? that is the worst luck.

Put a video camera in ur window and watch that shit.
