Morning all
I've had problems recently with my 2005 golf gti and the alarm keep on going off for no reason Very frustrating ! I've had the drivers door lock module replaced last weekend because It was playing up on me and wouldn't unlock Genuine vw part
I don't think the alarm did this before I changed the module could it be a duff door lock module any help on my situation would be much appericated
bacillus:
Could just be coincidence but suggest you get a vcds scan done as your siren could be faulty.

Had the same problem, was a dodgy door lock module that I replaced. Wasn't a genuine unit I used. Got progressively worse and alarm was going off every 5 mins and throwing on the interior lights while I was driving.

I had a simular alarm gremlin and it turned out to be the ignition micro switch. Scans showed up error in door module and rear boot switch which I replaced and alarm kept going off for no reason. In the end I replaced the ignition inner barrel with microswitch and good as gold. When driving can you hear clicking sounds every now and again coming from steering colum and maybe doors unlock themselfs when driving?

Well I went to vw heritage on Friday for dionoistics and Revo stage 1 map the only error code it came up with was the battery was disconnected ? :( what do you mean by microswitch ?
