What is the Golf's anti-theft system?
2 Answers
Golf is an online anti-theft system that not only enhances the overall safety of the vehicle but also protects key components. The automotive anti-theft system is designed to prevent the theft of the vehicle itself or items inside it. It consists of an electronically controlled remote or key, electronic control circuits, alarm devices, and actuators. The Golf belongs to FAW-Volkswagen and is a compact 5-door, 5-seat hatchback with dimensions of 4296mm in length, 1788mm in width, and 1471mm in height, a wheelbase of 2636mm, a front suspension using MacPherson strut independent suspension, and a rear suspension using torsion beam non-independent suspension.
I've driven several Golf cars, and their anti-theft system is quite reliable, especially the engine immobilizer. The key contains a small chip that pairs with the car, preventing the engine from starting without the correct key, which stops thieves from driving it away. The alarm system is also very sensitive—if someone tries to force open a door or smash a window, it will sound loudly to alert people nearby. When I lived in a residential area, I never worried about parking at night. Additionally, the central locking feature allows you to lock all doors and windows with just one press, which is very convenient. Just remember to check the key battery regularly, as the system won't work if the battery dies. Overall, this system gives me more peace of mind while driving and reminds me to park in secure locations in big cities to reduce risks.
