370 is freaking out.
My 370 is kinda... freaking out.
This has happened about 3 times in the past month, I am taking it to the dealership but I wonder what you guys think of it. Last time was the worse. So I am at my favorite bar and out of nowhere my alarm goes off while nothing touched it(I was sitting at a window next to the car). Odd thing is that I know that turned off the alarm because it keeps on going off because I tend to keep the left window open because its getting hot here but that causes bugs to fly in and trigger it. Ok no problem you would think, open it and the alarm goes off? I press every single button on my fob but it does nothing, opening,closing, nothing works, I try pushing the buttons on the doors and trunk, nothing. Car doesn't open and alarm keeps on going. In the end I opened it with the actual key, alarm still going off, tried to start it, nothing not even ACC or ON. I tried pressing the alarm button behind my seat. didn't work. After about 10 minutes of just spamming my fob buttons it suddenly worked again. I leave, power windows don't work so I had to reset them again, language of the computer is in english instead of dutch, I normally put it on the temperature but its on the fuel usage bit. CD player reset to CD 1 instead of 4. This seems to happen pretty often these days. Also is the alarm supposed to go off if you leave your car unlocked? So yeah, what the hell Last edited by Vegitto-kun; 06-01-2010 at 07:00 AM. |

So I borrowed half the money from the bank and half from my father. Is that a problem? |

No problem. I am surviving, the fact that my gas is billed to the company sure helps haha.
another thing that might matter. nothing electronically was working, no lights on the start button, not even the lock signal. Couldn't move the seats either. the lights inside didn't go on too |

I think its a short in your fog lamp circuit... That why no one here in the states has experienced the problem. Torching the interior may not fix the issue... But it will go a long way toward diagnosis... Good luck...

If that's their passion and its within reason, I would. I wouldn't get my kid a Porsche turbo, but an evo might be OK. I'd help out with the down payment and expect them to pay everything thereafter. Want them to be responsible, give them responsibility. Of course that's my opinion now that I dont have kids and things will most likely change, but it worked with me years ago.
