    I have an Omega 2.5 and for the last 3 or 4 weekends at approx 9.30am, the
    alarm goes off for no apparent reason. This only happens on a Sat or Sun and
    not a weekday. Anyone know what's going on? Thanks.

    The days/times are probably just a coincidence..... the problem is most
    likely that the alarm sounder battery needs replacing (this seems to be
    quite a regular thing with Vauxhall alarms). My Astra done the same
    thing and when they replaced the sounder unit under warranty, it fixed
    the problem.

    Another symptom is when you lock/deadlock the car with the fob, the
    alarm occasionally gives four or five short beeps. If yours does that
    too then it is certainly the sounder unit.
