Default get a VAGCOM or VWTOOL and find out exactly which sensor is triggering the alarm.

focus and fix.

If your're windows are open, it's windy your motion sensors might go off.

Default Check for broken door or hood interlock switches...

The plunger switches for the driver & passenger doors are easily broken by catching the seatbelt in the door when closing.
