The car alarm on my B5 quattro has been going off the last couple of weeks so I disconnected it to avoid a showdown with my neighbours. I know there's a fix on the alarm siren as the internal batteries fail, which I completed yesterday. I used this guide: http://www.audiaddict.net/viewtopic.php?f=87&t=770
All connected again and the alarm went off at 2.00am this morning. I left the car unlocked in the drive until I can disconnect the siren. I really need to get the car hooked up to VCDS to see what's triggering it. Does anyone live within Aberdeenshire area that could scan it in exchange for some beer tokens?
When the siren sounds at night, there are no lights flashing, just the siren, so it's a false alarm. I've tried opening the car when it's locked (windows down) and open door internally and lights and siren come on.
