Aluminum foil works great as a Faraday cage. You can wrap the fob in foil or line a small pouch with foil and it will do the job.I've seen "Faraday Bags" that you can buy to put the key fob into while not in use, but has anyone found a smaller solution? A key fob cover that blocks the signal would be best, but a small pouch would also work.

I dont see relay signal device can intercept Tesla Key Fob
They are bluebooth device with 2-way encryption communication
each signal is different even for the same command, relay wont work
So disable passive entry is the way to stop your car from being hacked? Couldnt the signal still be amplified if at a limited distance and a program that mimics the app controls or even just the remote itself be used to open and start the car? Theres been some circulating youtube vids of the model S getting hacked and driven off the driveway.
If passive entry is disabled they would actually have to press a button on the fob to unlock the car. And if they can do that then there is nothing you can do to stop them because they have possession of your fob.

hack vids indicated that the owners fob isnt required to open the door or start the car, they have a software and hardware that mimics the fob once the signal is located and amplified. For newer released tesla fobs, i've read that tesla changed the algorithm to help prevent hacks, but no news if this has actually worked on new models post 2016-17.
so to clarify, if passive entry is disabled so would the ability to open and drive off with your car without the fob? therefore Pin to Drive is not necessary ?
I have enabled PIN to Drive. Even with the key fob inside the vehicle you “Must” enter a PIN in order to drive. Works great...
This is correct. Further, even if your car stays opened when you get out, someone can't necessarily drive off. After a short amount of time, once the vehicle is in the "car off" state, an unlock signal from double-clicking the fob is necessary to drive even when you're in the vehicle with the fob. Automatic doors can even be left on. When the vehicle is unlocked (including when you open an FWD with the fob), the driver door will open based on proximity. Otherwise, the doors will only be opened on double-clicks.so to clarify, if passive entry is disabled so would the ability to open and drive off with your car without the fob? therefore Pin to Drive is not necessary ?
