Does the Ghost immobiliser stop keyless and relay theft?
Yes. The Ghost defeats the digital methods now common across Kent, including relay attacks, key cloning and OBD port attacks. It requires a unique sequence of button presses before the engine will start, so the car cannot be driven away even if thieves bypass the alarm or clone a key.
Do I still need a Ghost if my car already has a factory alarm or a tracker?
Yes, they do different jobs. Alarms and trackers react after a theft is under way, whereas the Ghost stops the engine from starting in the first place. Thieves can bypass many factory alarms in seconds, so a covert immobiliser adds a preventative layer that works before your car ever moves.
How does the Ghost immobiliser work?
The Ghost uses a secret PIN code entered through a sequence of presses on your existing buttons, such as the steering wheel or door controls. This disables an internal CAN bus interface, so the engine will not start without the correct code. There are no fobs or signals for thieves to intercept or find.
Can more than one person drive a car fitted with a Ghost?
Yes. Your disarm sequence can be shared with anyone you trust, so multiple drivers in the same household can use the vehicle normally. The code can also be changed at any time, which is handy if circumstances change or you sell the car.
How long does Ghost immobiliser installation take, and will it affect my car?
A standard fitting takes around two hours, varying by vehicle and access. All work is non-invasive and reversible, integrated into secure points in your wiring without interfering with manufacturer settings. Everything is tested and verified before your handover.
Is the Autowatch Ghost immobiliser insurance approved?
Ghost Installations is a TASSA approved installer, and many insurers recognise the Ghost as an effective security upgrade, rewarding owners with reduced premiums on some policies. This makes it a popular choice for performance cars, hybrids and high-value vans across the South East. Always confirm the details with your own insurer.
