Do I Need an Immobiliser As Well?

For most insurance policies, a Thatcham S5 tracker meets the minimum requirement.

However:

  • Some insurers require S5 with immobilisation (iMob variant)

  • High-risk vehicles may require additional immobilisation

  • Some owners choose added protection voluntarily

If required, we may recommend:

  • SmartTrack S5 iMob

  • Meta Trak Deadlock Pro

  • Or a separate Autowatch Ghost 2 Immobiliser

We can advise based on your vehicle type and insurance requirements.

We do not use mobile “quick fit” methods. Every system is installed carefully and documented correctly for insurance purposes.

Do You Only Need an Immobiliser Instead of a Tracker?

If your insurer does not require a GPS tracking system but you want strong theft protection, the Autowatch Ghost 2 Immobiliser is an effective standalone solution. The Ghost 2 from Autowatch provides discreet CAN-bus immobilisation without additional remotes or visible wiring. It prevents the vehicle from starting unless a secure PIN sequence is entered using existing factory controls, making it a secure and fully integrated vehicle security upgrade. For full installation details, visit our Ghost 2 installation page .

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will fitting an insurance approved tracker reduce my premium?

A Thatcham-approved S5 tracker may help meet insurer requirements and in some cases contribute to a lower premium. This depends entirely on your insurer and policy terms.

What happens if my vehicle is stolen?

If your vehicle is stolen, the monitoring centre is alerted and works with you and the police to track and recover the vehicle using GPS tracking technology.

How long does tracker installation take?

Most insurance approved tracker installations take approximately 2-3 hours at our Midland-s workshop, depending on vehicle type and system selected.

Do I need an immobiliser as well as a tracker?

Most insurers require a Thatcham S5 tracker. Some policies may require immobilisation functionality, which is included in S5 iMob or Deadlock Pro systems.

Will I get a mobile app with my tracker and what does it do?

Yes. SmartTrack S5 and Meta Trak S5 systems include access to a secure mobile app. The app allows you to view your vehicle location, receive movement alerts, manage driver authorisation settings, and monitor system status. On SmartTrack iMob and Meta Trak Deadlock systems, the app can also be used for immobilisation management and service mode activation.

What happens if I lose my driver tag or ADR card?

If you lose your driver recognition tag for a SmartTrack S5 iMob or Meta Trak S5 system, you can request and pair a replacement tag. In the meantime, you can verify yourself using the mobile app and temporarily manage immobilisation settings. This works similarly to activating service mode, ensuring you are not left stranded while waiting for a replacement.

What happens when my car goes in for servicing?

Before servicing, you can use the SmartTrack or Meta Trak app to place the system into service mode. This temporarily disables immobilisation functions on iMob and Deadlock systems while maintaining tracking capability. Once your vehicle is returned, service mode can be deactivated through the app to restore full security protection.
