Not good. Assumed Audi’s were vulnerable to this. On my prior Land Rover the manufacturer had blocked OBD cloning (I.e. not allowed a new key to be generated like that via the port) due to thefts. But of course the flip side is more hassle and cost when you need a new key.
If you don’t mind spending some £ then look at a tracker with a key card or key fob of some sort. This immobilises the engine unless the extra card/fob is present, hence making OBD port cloning or wireless keyless entry hacks useless. Basically someone has to physically get the key card or fob (nothing’s perfect) to take the car I.e. break in and find keys, card etc. Look for trackers that are Thatchem Category 5 (old standard for this) or MTS (new similar standard). PM me if you want more details - I’m not selling, I just looked into it recently.
