New C-Class.... 3 months old. When parked the alarm keeps triggering. MB have replaced the internal sensors but this hasn't fixed the problem. Diagnostics continue to show that the sensor is triggering.


MB tell us that they've had a number of people reporting the problem and their suspicion is that it's due to the heavy winds that we've had lately and that closing the airvents helps reduce the problem (I look forward to seeing that in the owner's manual!!!)


Anyone else had the same problem? Any views on what causes it?
