Someone got into my car.. help me figure out what's missing?

Post by alymck » Tue Dec 06, 2022 5:27 pm

So, I did a silly thing and left my car unlocked (by mistake obvs) on an unfamiliar street. Got back to it, and some opportunist had had a rummage about - thankfully I'd left nothing important in there and they did nothing to actually damage the car, but they'd taken everything out of the boot / cubbys and left it strewn about.

I'm trying to figure out what (if anything) is missing. Is anyone (particularly anyone with a D3 Biturbo Touring I suppose) able to help with the inventory of what I should have, and where it should go?

I must admit to having not spent much time in the boot, so I'm not sure what should be where. Feel like there was defo a valve extender thing for the wheels somewhere? Will need to get another of those.

Any help appreciated!

Have they taken a locking wheel nut key?

The car doesn't actually have locking nuts (presumably because the locking centre caps provide some protection). Have sometimes wondered if it should have though. Is wheel theft still a thing? Maybe I'll add a set just to be on the safe side :)

If an opportunist got into my boot and took a few things they’d be doing me a favour
B5 G30 number 332 (development car)

D5 number 21

D3MT number 284 (gone but will be sadly missed)

Locking nuts as a Christmas present for the car

Doesn't look like anything is missing. I'd be more bothered that they'd been able to clone a key than anything else to be honest, has the ODB port been disturbed?
