I think I've read that on another post somewhere.
Plus my bonnet catch needs a firm shut or I get a mislock and 2 beeps so I guess there is a relationship.

No mention of the bonnet switch for me.

At this moment in time they have not provided us with exactly what the problem was, however I will probably have this by next week, which I can share with you?

Kind regards,
Liam

Liam, any news on the cause and can you share the range of VINs effected?

Thanks

RE: Alarm behaviour

I hope this isn't like measles, my alarm has gone off twice in the last 4 nights between 0200 and 0300 for no apparent reason. It could have been the storm force winds we had here last night rocking the car, but there was no reason for the previous time. I recently had another software upgrade for the BMS so I hope this isn't related............
A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

RE: Alarm behaviour

Mine is booked in for Thursday/Friday for the upgrade, so I'm hoping that these will be the last few days of being woken up in the early hours. I'll be asking exactly what has been done.
Arrived Jan 2013 from Hadley Green Arrow Prestige SD4 Manual, Fuji White, Pan Roof, Cirrus/Lunar, Aluminium, Ivory Headliner, A/D, Privacy, Lux Pack, Xenons etc
