Default sigma alarm!!!!

hi, im still having a problem with my02 bug alarm! been going off randomly now for about 3 months and seems to only happen at night so the neighbours are getting a bit p**sed off now! so i went into subaru today and they said that because these alarms are getting old and apparently they would not be on any other wavelines there is now other things that can trigger the alarm such as police radios, masses etc, so then the guy rang up a specialist and said for subaru to check and adjust the sensitivity or do that and replace the sonic sensors has any body else had simaller problem???

Thanks
Jamie
