2014 GLK 250 BlueTech Remove GPS Trackers
Hi,
I own my vehicle and somehow my ex is tracking my location. How do I remove the GPS/Antenna from the car?

I’m pretty sure that a ‘13, ‘14, ‘15 GLK (not sure if it must be equipped with navigation) could be located with the Mercedes Me app. I no longer have my ‘15, and can’t check. So if the ex has the app and it is still linked to the GLK, the location should be visible. I don’t think removing the GPS antenna is necessary. The dealer should be able to flash the comm module back to ground state to break any connections.
Correct me if you know I’m wrong.
In any case, I would want to report this as harassment.

Our 2018 BMW has an app which has the feature for locating your vehicle as well as many other cool, less intrusive features. Even without the app, the car is in constant communication with BMW\dealer. Most modern luxury cars work this way. In the onboard menu there should be an option to disable this feature.
I would involve the police if you can't find it.
@habbyguy Why do you assume he is doing the tracking? Why not she?

After the cell phone systems switched to 5G and disabled 3G and 4G, the Mercedes Me quit working for our GLKs. You may have an Apple AirTag hidden in/on your car. You can find it as described in this article and even make it play a tone assuming that its little speaker hasn't been disabled (Instructions available on YouTube). I now track the locations of my cars with AirTags.

I have a 13 and since 5g I have no mbrace mb service , MB canceled it a few years ago. I did not want to pay 30-40 a month for cell service . Open your Mbrace app, can you track your car? I can’t anymore . If you can’t track yourself nobody can through MB.
I have my own apple air tags in my car for theft. If you have an apple phone someone else’s Air Tag will notify you . Are you being notified ?
do you have Tile Trackers? That might work if you use them now and have the app.
if it’s not those than look for a hidden dedicated tracker. Maybe hardwired . Like others said go to your police department.

I'll still bet dollars to donuts that the tracking is being done with a location app on the OP's phone (which, if he / she is like 99% of the population, never leaves their immediate proximity).
This might help...
