Would you disable keyless entry for security reasons?
Would you disable remote entry for security reasons? As there are known ways to steal the signal etc?

IMHO if you can then do so. It can be switched off using the lights button hack (can’t remember exact sequence), but it doesn’t work on all D4s, well it didn’t with mine.

to be fair to Del, D5 on a D4 forum is a minority interest ... the whole "Discovery 5 - L462" topic on here has less than a quarter of the posts that Del has made all by himself
(said by someone else who answered a D5 question not spotting it wasn't D3/D4 realted )

Its a 2018 thanks.
If it's a 2018MY then the relay hack they use to extend the signal does not work so you don't need to worry about disabling it.21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

MY is the model year.
