Hi, I have checked the search but haven't found anything regarding my problem
My alarm goes off 50% of the time I lock my car, usually within 5 minutes, sometimes as little as 30 seconds, its got so bad over the weekend that I have resorted to leaving it unlocked the majority of the time!
The only thing I can thing off is maybe there is a problem with the battery but as I am having no other electrical problems, and no warning through I-Drive regarding a low battery (doe sit even warn you anyway?)
Any help woul dbe much appreciated.
Regards

Most likely the hood sensor. I had this same problem on my old 330Ci and when I replaced the hood sensor everything was fine. It's easy to replace and cheap to buy...good luck
