Vehicle screening

Tracking and recording devices in vehicles are usually hidden in cavities, in the wiring or on the diagnostic port. A screening combines a systematic physical inspection with radio measurement.

What is examined

  • Interior, boot, engine bay and underbody
  • Diagnostic port, fuse boxes and wiring harness
  • Radio environment during standstill and, where agreed, during a test drive
  • Conspicuous power draws and non-original components

How the examination is carried out

  1. 1.Documented visual and physical inspection, section by section
  2. 2.Radio measurement across the relevant frequency ranges
  3. 3.Assessment of any device found, without altering it unnecessarily
  4. 4.Written findings with photographs and location details

Technical limits

These limits are stated before the instruction, not afterwards.

  • Passive loggers without transmission are only found by physical inspection.
  • Devices that transmit rarely may not be active during the measurement window.
  • Complete dismantling of the vehicle is not part of a standard screening.
  • A negative result reduces, but does not eliminate, the possibility of a device being present.
