My alarm seems to have an issue with unlocking via keys instead of the Fob Key. Just recently I notice when using car key to unlock as I open the driver door the alarm goes off for a several seconds. Doesn't do this with the Fob and opening the driver door. I checked my handbook and nothing mention on this. Could this be to do with inflating front tyres when going down a little or me not cleaning the bird **** of the bonnet.

I have a non coded key for mine so I can lock the car without the fob when surfing. The alarm has always gone off when opening the car with that key rather than the fob. I assumed this was normal. Not sure if that helps.
 
If you open the car with the key in the door lock, the alarm will go off until you put the key in the ignition. This prevents anyone who can "fudge" the lock from being to able to enter the car unannounced. ;)

yeah I replaced mine with a non coded type as the cost was very expensive since Aldi offered a 2for the price of 3 on carrots. Weird thing is though as this is very recent and my lock replaced about few years back when I bought from Morrison's deli counter.

it odd that it never done this since I bought a replacement non coded version with Lidl comparison website offer. Something must have triggered or it reset this. I think mi5 or the Russians might have a hand in this as my door handle felt sticky and smelt weird. Hopefully the cheaper brand of tea bags I bought from serge the soviet spy might helllllllpppp
