doods went into the store and didnt lock my doors. came out and my girlfriend opened the door and the alarm went off. to make a long story short when i turn the key back to lock the doors and set the alarm it unlocks the doors and make the beep. when i turn it forward to unlock it locks the doors. WTF damn quirky cars.

Yep, can't remember who, but.... just pull your battery connection, let it sit for a few, reconnect.
Then, I think you'll need to lock/unlock your door manually (ACK! WITH THE KEY! EWWWW) to have it recognize your system as "active" or something.

Re: alarm troubles
If the locks and alarm are out of sync, try the following
(from a post by Fred Munro):
Make sure you have the code for your radio before you start this.
1. Remove back seat bottom
2. Open right rear door
3. Lock car with key or remote
4. Disconnect battery
5. Unlock car with key
6. Reconnect battery
This should get the locks and alarm back in sync.
Note: there are posts that describe removing relays to do this.
It didn't work for me. I would hazard a guess that the relay
removal method only works for infrared-equipped cars, and not
for wireless.<ul><li><a href="http://www.elektro.com/~audi/memory/audi_resync.html">Charlie's pages</a></li></ul>
