Ah right. I thought maybe the car recorded alarm triggering or something. Clutching at straws!

Yes, I know about that one too, though haven't checked it yet (vile weather here). I know my old M3 had that problem years ago, but I think that stopped the spoiler stop light array working or something... can't remember.


Mine only has 14000 miles on it, so I'm thinking maybe the boot hasn't had that much use
