    This method has been around for a while

    People advised wrapping the key in foil when not in use which blocks the signal.

    It’s definitely nothing new, but it’s interesting to see how quick and easy they manage to drive away with the car!!

    I always keep my key in my Faraday pouch overnight. This is the one I use and I know it does the job:
