Thanks Mike and I can see that that might be a possibility although I would expect any self respecting car thief to go for something a bit more upmarket than my Qashqai (which I do truly really like)!!

Thanks for your response Mike. So do you reactivate by simply pressing the button again and locking the car? I am struggling to understand the point of the internal movement sensors. If you lock your car then the action of forcing a door, the boot or the bonnet would activate the alarm. Under what c...

I have a 2015 1.2 Dig-T N-Tec+ with which I currently have a bit of an issue with the alarm system. Two weeks running now the alarm has repeatedly gone off during the night for no apparent reason. It doesn't happen every night, only occasionally. I prefer to drive around locally with windows open in...

Hi Guys Problem solved! The plate holding the towbar electrics socket had somehow been bent outwards a bit (see photo). The use of an old screwdriver and a lump hammer "persuaded" the plate to move backwards enough for the continuous red light and buzzer to not activate as soon as I select...

Hi Lewis Apologies for my late response to your very helpful and informative response. The car drove perfectly during the month after the fault was cleared. It has also driven perfectly since it was cleared the second time and this included a journey to and from Shrewsbury earlier this week (over 50...

Hi Calnorth and Nick

Thanks guys for your input and advice, which I will pass on to my mechanic.
