Boxster 987 S Alarm trouble
Discussion
After a long time of non contributing lurkingness I could do with some help regarding an alarm issue I appear to have with a recently purchased 2005 987 s 3.2. I'm aware that after 7 days the alarm "shuts down" and won't respond to the key fob however my car seems to be confusing 7 days with as little as 6 hours and won't respond to the fob and has to be opened with the key and then disarmed whereupon the fob then works.
The key fob batteries have been replaced and the car also has a fairly new battery that had no trouble starting the car first time after 5 days of being parked up so I assume this rules these out? Would a diagnostic check show any faults with the alarm? Or am I missing something quite obvious? Any advice /help/ info gratefully received as although it's not a big drama to live with it's clearly not right either and after 4 years of Alfa 147 GTA reliability before the Boxster (no really!)I wasn't expecting a little niggly fault like this! Many thanks in advance.
