Hi everyone

I've had my 05 STI PPP for a couple of months now and have noticed a problem with it - every time I start it from cold (and sometimes even when it isn't cold) my next door neighbour's car alarm goes off. They've got one of those Renault Megane coupe-cabriolet things. My car is garaged but even if I start it outside the Renault alarm goes off!

Now while this was amusing for a while its beginning to get to the stage where although my neighbours haven't said anything yet it must be annoying them.

I also recently had to park next to a different Renault Megane coupe-cabriolet at work and again every time I started the Impreza that car alarm went off as well. Its also set off the alarm on a Renault Scenic.

Has anyone else had this problem with setting off Renault car alarms? Is there anything I can do to avoid setting thier alarm off every morning or are Renault alarms just really sensitive?

Any help appreciated before the neighbours lynch me...

Didn't think renaults would need a sensitive alarms, especially if a subaru is next to it.

Hubby got a renault, i got 03 STi, mine never sets his Clio alarm off, sorry can't help!!

I was reversing into a space in a multi storey car park the other day and a lexus's alarm go off... echoing noise etc. People must have thought i had hit the car.

Just sensitive alarms i guess.... but i can see how it must be annoying for your neighbour's especially if its every morning.... not much can be done thought really.

Unless you want to sell the scooby...

My exhaust sets loads of car alarms off, theres a particular road on the way to work, give iot a few beans and it sets at least 4 or 5 off without fail
