I'd start with the bonnet catch. My previous RRS did this - alarm would go off randomly, changed the catch and no more false alarms. You could pull the catch sensor wire and, I think, short it to see if false alarms stop. A new catch is easy to fit or you could just run with the sensor disabled. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Thought I read somewhere people bridge the switch wiring plug out with paper clip to disable it temporarily, might have that wrong though.
