I had mine fitted by a guy called Mark. He was passed on to me by a forum member. I gave Luke his details and he fitted his too. He’s very good.

He's based in the West Midlands and travelled to me in Essex to do the job.

His number is: 07468 415450
Thanks ,i'll give him a call. :thumbs:

A20LEE/Neil76 I was going to get Anthony back to add the remote start and look at the warn away but I came back from Christmas break and the warn away worked when i walked past it in the locked garage haha, its outside again now though.... but I wont lose sleep over this car being outside and i think I can live without remote start.

The warn away and app were the reason i went with the Pandora so its really annoying they don’t work. Especially as it’s double the money of the Clifford which is reputed to be very reliable. If the Pandora worked as described i’d be delighted, check the app and seeing unavailable just stresses me out when it’s supposed to reassure you the car is ok. They do need to sort these issues out fast and 100% or no one buy them

You do know the clifford has warn away?
Hope you get this sorted

Anthony came up yesterday and sorted all mine out works great now. He changed the brain and moved the proxy sensor as well as set everything up. Even did some videos for reference as i was not here to have the demo.
Still need to don the app. Just not had time as it in the garage now. Juat hope that works for me.

Disappointing issues guys! I have to say mine works fine (silver with no remote start). I insisted Antony fitted mine himself based on previous reviews when SMC were fitting Viper alarms.

The prox sensor goes off a little too much for my liking as its parked on the street but Antony has given me instructions on how to adjust this on the central unit.

I don't have the app so have to manage mine through the pandora fob. After some playing I have now worked out how to disable the siren while leaving the alarm on (after an embarassing loud alarm at the golf club with 20+ people on the first tee - set off by a dog lingering close to the car).

Antony came to sort mine too. Not entirely trouble free as the battery had gone flat by the time he’d finished and the car wouldn’t start even with two boost packs on it. I suspect the low volt meant the immobilizer didn’t disarm. I was in a panic and Antony did everything he could remotely before turning around and coming back. By then the local mechanic had managed to get enough power back into the car for it to start but did show engine locked in the history. It was the low battery causing this.

Now fully charged it’s working as it should and I’m very pleased. Antony is very good and obviously passionate about this system. It’s been a rocky road for me but I’d definately get another Pandora and offer to pay extra to get Antony to come fit it for me
