Alarm goes off all the time... ideas?
 

When the car was new, it used to do this. Then the dealer reduced the sensitivity level and everything was fine. That was 4 years ago. Since last fall the alarm goes off often. Brought the car to another dealer yesterday, who claims to have reduced the sensitivity further down. Alarm goes off MORE OFTEN (5 times today already). Car is parked outside in sunshine and light wind.
Beside the dealer having made the correction the wrong way, any other ideas on what could trigger this?

Thanks.

are your windows open?

Motion sensor? Bugs flying around maybe? Sounds strange, but it happened to me...

Maybe a little man lives in your trunk and climbs out when you're not looking to....
 

Okay sorry.

Assuming the car is closed when you park it, try disabling the interior
 

motion sensor. The driver's door needs to be open when you engage the motion sensor disable button (hope that makes sense).

I've had this problem on and off, especially at 2 a.m. This solution seems to help.

trunk monkey!

Excellent question!
 

Never experienced this with the TT but the allroad alarm goes off if I have the windows partially cracked. I must turn off the interior sensor before I exit the car.

LOL! nice. maybe he got a defective one that *monkeys* with stuff when he's not supposed to

yep.. the motion sensor is super sensitive w/ the windows down..
 

otherwise, my alarm has never gone off

New Cellphone or other electronics added...coincidental to appearance of problem?
