Got in the car today and drove off, tried to open drivers window but would not open, then both indicators flashing, then both on permanently, followed by alarm sounding as I drive along and I noticed although the drivers door firmly shut glass closed too far and outside door shut!

Any ideas?

Not to sure but it sounds like you put the alarm on when you switched off the immobilizer. I had this a couple of times when I first got mine. Had to reset the alarm. Now I always press the start button to see if the MIL light is on, if not pressing the key fob or inserting the alarm key. Hope this is of help.

thats pretty much what i did yesterday when I picked up the car. The second time I started it the hazards kept comming on the doors were locked and the windows wouldn't open. Did about 5 miles before I pulled over and switched off. For the next 150 miles the car drove like a bag of shite, hesitating and surging, dont think it liked been driven with the alarm on rolleyes

would disconnecting the battery re-set the alarm?

Pete it was easy to spot you following me last night with your hazards blazing!

It did re-set in the end.

felt a right plonker, particularly turning up at the event with alarm blaring!
