    As per the golf_6_gti_brochure.pdf available from the VW Australia website:

    Anti-theft:
    Electronic engine immobiliser
    Alarm system with interior monitoring and tilt sensor

    that sounds fantastic.. So long as things like the tilt sensor, etc are not too sensitive.

    I didn't realise mine had auto wipers, still they started working on their own. Bonus! Didn't know I might have an alarm, maybe I should read the book?

    O wow thats pretty sad.....

    Alarms pretty good, and the internal sensors can be turned off and on with the remote, as outlined in the..... manual ooo strange thing that

    One thing I want to know is that in the Manual is says there is a bottle opener in the centre console between the shifter and MDI compartment, the inset is there but I havent got a bottle opener, hmm maybe I should hassle the dealer, anything for nothing I say....

    Did your dealer attempt to sell you a 3rd party Alarm system?

    My one did and I thought it was ridiculous that they were attempting to make an extra buck from those that don't know about the stock alarm.

    LOL! Now that is the first thing I am checking for!
    or perhaps that's only with the drink driver package...
