Alarm going off randomly - E70 X5

Hi all,

I have a very annoying issue that my alarm randomly keeps going off randomly, at night, whilst driving etc etc on my E70 X5 (58 plate)  :blink:

I was wondering if anyone had experienced this and what would be the best solution?

Thanks in advance!

Indy

My X3 used to go off randomly, coded out tilt sensor, then internal sensors still no good,
Disconnected the plug from the bonnet alarm switch, never did it again.
As for going off whilst driving, ne rear had that as it wouldn't be armed

Disconnect the battery for 20mins (minimum)...neg lead off 1st and back on first...may just reset it...worth a punt....
