Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've recently had problems with my alarm - every time I lock the car the alarm sounds after c.30s. When I then unlock the car and leave it unlocked it subsequently automatically locks itself and the hazard lights switch on after c.30s. I've tried opening and closing the boots and roof and then locking again (just in case there's a loose connection somewhere) but to no avail. However, after repeating this cycle 4-5 times the car then locks normally with no further dramas. The car isn't parked on an incline. Although it's going for a service tomorrow does this sound familiar to anyone? All that aside I'm loving the car! Thanks.

About half way in https://youtu.be/khmCtOMVgIY Need an alarm siren, the internal battery will be on its way out.

Perfect - thanks very much!

Automatic re-locking if a door hasn't been opened is absolutely normal. The alarm siren battery tip is a good one to keep the system working. However, it's not obvious to me why the problem reported in OP should be related to the siren battery. That problem doesn't seem to be mentioned in the Youtube link.
