I can't see a red tip on the left side but I can see a yellow tip on the right side... and it flashes at me when I get in and out of the car. I guess I need to refill the washer fluid. Anyone know how big the capacity is?

As far as I know, the alarm was an optional extra on the One/Cooper.

When I use the remote button to lock the car and the then proceed to open the car using the key, the lights flash at me but no alarm sounds.

Guess I don't have an alarm then
