E430 going nuts on me! Door windows, alarm, trunk open randomly..
Started about a week ago, first wife mentioned alarm went off on it's own. Said she was crazy...then it did later that evening. Then a day later got work, parked the car..walked away after locking the doors..20 steps later alarm goes off, then it stayed on, could not shut off, could actually turn the car on and the alarm still on, light blinking..raining cats and dogs..
Somehow, don't know how after opening doors clicking swithches..time passes and it suddenly stops. Bing late to work by now..I walked away and told security that my car may act up..it did 4 more time in the day, sometimes with lights flashing other times w/o. and it always eventually turned itself off that day. I decided to not lock the car until I get an answer as to what is up.
next day..the trunk lid is open when I wake up. I closed it and when I left, it was open again, but bthis time all the windows down and sunroof open
what the heck is going on...other wise the car runs great.
