Sounds fun...

I'm putting tyres on mine on Saturday

actually came in before after doing one already, I'll have them all finished in a couple hours

Then going to redo them with silver paint instead of clearing the bare metal and having the same problem later on, masking them will be ever more fun

Alarm key fob always keeps running out of battery, urgh. Will need to invest in some rechargeable or a stash of batteries now zzz

this plus every other electrical problem in my car.

re-connect battery after it goes dead in 2 weeks, alarm arms itself and you cant open any doors so gotta walk around the car for 15-20mins pressing the button to try and disable it. wish I could get removed, but brings down the premium

2 weeks... what else is there that's drawing power? you could test the current draw of the alarm / car with everything turned off

Since the battery has been dead before, it might have lessened capacity now... do you have a proper 3+ Stage Mains Plug-In Charger? Alternatively, you could buy one of those little solar panels which tickle charges when the car isn't running to keep it topped up Worked great for my dads old boat when we didn't go near it for a few months at a time.

Lol I've never come across an alarm that's ment to be good that has actually worked like it should!

I've had my siren literally explode battery's out of their holder twice which has caused it to be un-responsive to the key fob and the valet button inside.. I've had to cut the alarm out with a box cutter in the middle of the city to make it stop going off, I had it go off parked in my garage and it was unarmed which required I cut it out again to stop it.

Remote start neutral switch breaks every few months.. I could go on and on!

No wonder 'top of the range' viper alarms have lifetime warrantees, they break all the time.

You'll have to tell me what brand alarm to steer clear of when I get my next car!

I had a mongoose m80 in the skyline 5 years and it worked perfectly. You are just doing it wrong.

[CrispyFries]

The one fitted to my liberty goes off randomly, so the siren is turned off... useful

[CrispyFries]

Pulled the bikes clutch down, made sure none of the plates are stuck together, put it all back together... still won't disengage

[Count Grantleyish]

Other week I'd discover that my 34 have a alarm and central locking when the guy I bought it off told me it's just a immobiliser

That was kinda handy.

[Down_Shift]

Anyone here have a spare coolant bottle cap? Mine went missing....

Duct tape over the hole.

Problem solved.

[Miguelone]

I think I've got one.

[Down_Shift]

Lol Grant, would do that but don't think it'll be such a good idea for Decca.

I think I've got one.

Where are you located Miguelone?

[Count Grantleyish]

Eh, they'll be ok with duct tape, everyone knows it's the best thing ever.

Same here, battery in the siren exploded on my Viper, repaired under warranty. The USB rechargable fob is great though.
