hi All,
now that I finally have my new babay (and love it!)
just wondering if I should get a steering wheel lock as a visual/actual deterrent? I've not had a car with keyless entry before and I'm a little nervous about it, havign read so many reports of car theft.
I cant see anythign online to say if any of the versions of stoplock will fit the xc40 and would appreciate any advice

If you are only concerned that theft will happen only due to the keyless entry system where signal boosters are used, The best thing to get is a key pouch that cuts all signals getting in or out of the this case instead of putting a stop lock on your stearing wheel. Lucky enough my car is always kept inside a garage or in a secure parking lot.

I watched a tv show, years back, showing how easily these are removed by criminals, less than 10 seconds, so I’ve never bothered. Maybe new ones are better. As long as Volvo On Call’s active, they’ve all got trackers, which seems a better deterrent to me.

I had a krooklok in my previous car and hoped it would fit the XC40 but sadly not. The airbag/horn bulge in the center of the wheel makes it impossible to fit the standard krooklok. Tried the pro version which has an increased crank depth but no luck with that either.
I ended buying this one.

It is shipped from China & took a month to get here but it was worth the wait. Fits like a dream in the large gap above the center bulge, no need for it to sit across the bulge like many others.
I know that at the end of the day they are not infallible but to me anything that makes it even a little more difficult for potential thieves is worth it...
