    Hi Ian

    Perhaps there is a BMW specialist near you that will be a more sensible cost Google will help there is a Register of BMW specialists 

    Alternatively there may be a member near you with the software to read the codes (I am in West Sussex)

    Hi and welcome to the club

     

    It does sound like Alarm circuit fault, with sound intermittent, check fuses, and door catches but as Greydog says the sensors are most likely fault. 

    The challenge is to find it or them. Mobile mechanic/electrician?
