Hi guys,

ive been having some seriously stupid problems with my brant atm.

one day it works, the next it doesnt... two trips to subaru, 4 visits from the rac and its still not right... no-one knows whats wrong!!

so ive come to the conclusion im replacing it with an aftermarket. the autowatch 555 looks like my best bet, but cost is my only concern.

any ideas how much to remove and replace???

The key has a chip in it anyway, isn't that enough?[/QUOTE]

Did you get urs disconnected?

I've had problems with mine and Subaru are telling me to get it disconnected not replaced.

My questions is why the hell are we paying for these problems when it's obviously Subaru's fault in fitting a dodgy system! Has anyone claimed compensation from Subaru?

Kato 15-03-2010 11:14 AM

Compensation? For what exactly?

Also if you remove this system, make sure you tell your insurance company as you will no longer have insurance without replacing it with something like an Autowatch.

Caitlin 15-03-2010 11:17 AM

Compensation for the cost of replacing the system?

Luigi 15-03-2010 11:17 AM

I must be lucky as I have never had a problem with mine after 3 years.

Kato 15-03-2010 11:21 AM

I never had a problem with mine in the 4 years I owned my MY05.

Subaru will fix the alarm if the car is still under warranty. There is your compensation. If it is outside of warranty... Tough titties. Same as if your air con breaks down or what not, you need to sort it out then.

Caitlin 15-03-2010 11:25 AM

yeah I understand the insurance issues.. The Autowatch seems to be a good replacement (as talked about in these threads).

My reasoning for the compensation is that I am assuming it's a manufacture/installation error with the system.. it's not due to buyer neglect, wear or age that has caused the problem?
Sorry getting annoyed with this problem..
