Hey guys,
How can I tell if my 197 has a factory alarm fitted? All the blinkers do their thing when locking/unlocking, but I have never heard any sounds whatsoever and I don't think I have any sensors inside. I got the car from Switzerland... if it makes any difference. Can the alarm be programmed somehow? I remember tweaking the beepers on my old passat and forcing them to be silent, kicking tires, trying to open doors etc didn't trigger them, only when someone sticks his hand inside.
The problem is that my insurance guy told me that a "sound signal" is mandatory, or else I risk not being paid in full if my car disappears...
