Default Just been following, worried about it been stolen¬

As the thread says, just been followed from a petrol station and lost them about 1/2 mile from my house.

The car has the standard sigma alarm.

Can I disconnect any sensors to stop it from starting?

Pull the main fuse or disconnect the battery. If you have the newage with metasat and have credits you can command it not to start.

Have you got an air rifle shoot the ******* if they come even better if you've got a paintball gun then you can shoot them and phone the police a man covered in paint splats will be easy to spot. On a more sensible note just keep an eye and ear out.

Sorry for your trouble m8
If it was only half mile they probs are hunting for it , / the down side is - if some 1 wants it that bad they will get it no matter what u have on / or taken off / the plus side - there probably opportunist - so don't let it get 2 you , if it's secure , & the norm itl be fine & still there when u wake . If your really paranoid 2 nite take a wheel off the front & stand it on an axle stand , not a jack

No lol sorry for silly comments been a long day could you not ring rozzers and tell them you believe you've been followed and they should at least do a drive through the estate Might be enough to put them off amazing how quick they can take cars mine was stolen a few years ago off my drive and CCTV showed it took them less than 30 secs to somehow bypass my immobiliser and drive off without alarm going off unfortunately some of them are professionals like others have said if they want it they'll get it that's what insurance is for

Yep that will stop them ,probably 2-3 of them with knifes and bats ,if they are stupid enough to go into someones house they are stupid enough to follow whacking you over the head while you are a sleep or even getting one of your children if you have any.
Like said above they will do anything these days
