    Sadly mate, it's normal for these.
    The best way round it is to disconnect the siren module.

    try turning off the interior sensors. Next to the dtsc button theres a button that has a picture on it that looks as if it does something with the interior lights but it infact turns turns the mass movement and cardoid microphones off. hold it for 5 seconds.

    I don't know if it's the same for P2s, but when the alarm keeps going off on the C70 I lock it with the key rather than the fob, and it's fine.

    I had a couple of false alarms back in October, literally 24 hours before going holiday. I couldn't risk having the alarm going off whilst away for 2 weeks so I left it unlocked lol. I was all set for changing the alarm module on my return but it's been fine since (touching wood). Not sure if I'm on borrowed time or perhaps a good slam of the doors, boot & bonnet cured the issue. Time will tell.
