Is There a GPS Tracker on Your Car?
If someone always seems to know where you have been, there may be a tracker on your vehicle. We come to you anywhere in the UK and check your car properly — electronic detection combined with a hands-on physical inspection — and give you a clear answer. From £399.
What We Look For
There is no single kind of tracker, so a real sweep has to account for all of them.
Magnetic Battery Trackers
Self-contained units in a magnetic case, stuck under a wheel arch, bumper or the underside of the car. They run on battery and often sleep between updates.
OBD Plug-In Trackers
Devices plugged into the OBD-II diagnostic port beneath the steering wheel, drawing power from the car and reporting continuously.
Hardwired Trackers
Units spliced into the vehicle's wiring or fuse box so they are permanently powered and harder to spot — these need a physical inspection to find.
Bluetooth Tags
Consumer tags such as AirTags hidden in the cabin. These are the one type a phone can sometimes flag — but only sometimes.
Listening Devices
Covert audio bugs placed in the cabin to record conversations, checked as part of the same sweep.
Hidden Cameras
Small cameras concealed in the interior, including lens detection for devices that are not actively transmitting.
Why a Proper Sweep, Not a Gadget
This is the difference between a clean bill of health you can trust and a false all-clear.
- A phone can spot a Bluetooth tag like an AirTag, but it cannot detect the covert cellular GPS trackers usually fitted to a car. Those are invisible to any app.
- Many trackers sleep while the car is parked and only wake when it moves, so we drive it to trigger them and sweep immediately.
- We combine radio-frequency detection with a hands-on physical inspection of the OBD port, wheel arches, bumpers, engine bay and wiring.
- That is how we find dormant, hardwired and hidden devices a single wave of a detector will miss.
If we find a device
Where a tracker relates to stalking or an abusive relationship, we will advise you to preserve it as evidence and involve the police rather than simply removing it. Your safety comes first, and we can document the find to support you.

Frequently Asked Questions
The usual sign is that someone seems to know where you have been or keeps turning up unexpectedly. A phone can find Bluetooth tags such as AirTags, but covert cellular GPS trackers are invisible to apps and need a proper sweep combining radio-frequency detection with a physical inspection.
A mobile vehicle tracker and bug sweep starts from £399, all-inclusive and confirmed before we start. We come to you anywhere in the UK.
Around one to two hours, including driving the car to wake motion-triggered devices and the physical inspection of the OBD port, wheel arches, bumpers and wiring.
Yes, entirely. Checking your own vehicle is lawful. Placing a tracker on someone else's car without consent is generally unlawful, which is exactly the situation our clients are checking for.
We show you the device. Where it relates to stalking or an abusive relationship we advise you to preserve it as evidence and involve the police rather than simply removing it, and we can document the find.
