Are you sure about that? My car has CA and my mirrors will not fold-in if I press and hold the lock button.

The 3 series the alarm is an option. All others come standard. That pissed me off. I don't care about the alarm I just like the confirmation that I locked the doors.

The dealer used to be able to program the car as if it had the alarm when in fact it did not. This would make the red light in the clown nose blink and give you a horn beep or some other audio confirmation when you locked the car. My understanding is that now they cannot do this. This can only be done if you have the alarm. But, I'm 100% sure about this.

That's the other strange thing...my car is supposed to have the alarm. The red light blinks when the car is locked n' all, but I have not been able to get the alarm to sound either by making someone jump around inside the locked car, or by manually opening the door with "the key" with the system armed. Wonder what gives...?
