Negative Should work fine from now on.

It shouldnt happen again but if its constantly doing it then I would suggest taking it down to Subaru and getting them to have a look at it.

yeh was thinking of upgrading to another alarm but at the mean time i need to sort it out.

disconnecting works fine atm, but every time i start up my car again the SAME thing happens, so i need to disconnect each time i start the car...

has anyone experienced this be4? and if so what do i need to do to fix it apart from bringing the car to the dealers.

Sounds like you need to take it back to the dealer.

Edit: Maybe give the dealer a call first and see what can be done over the phone. Have all your car's details ready - Rego, dealer's car number (usually usually stuck onto ur windscreen), etc.

Why change it? Brant aren't shit - The system works fine. I'd rather spend 10 seconds putting a code in than seeing my pride and joy been driven away by 6 social scum. Each to their own.
