Don't know for sure, but I doubt it.
Most aftermarket alarms have rolling codes now, but I would be surprised if the factory system had it.

No, it does not. It is a simple system, that does not do alot.

Great! Some thief has my code. My car was broken into last night. I suspect they used either a Slim Jim or grabbed my transmitter code as there is no sign of forced entry. If they have my code then they can come back any time they want. Is there anything that can be done to beef this thing up??

Seems to me the Acura remote entry transmitter is a security risk!

yup...go aftermarket....
the Acura factory system is barely an alarm.
There are a lot of threads on here about what aftermarket alarm is the best, just do a search and you will have a lot of reading to do! Have Fun.

Not sure that will help either. Look at this sh*t that is available on the internet:

310 CAR ALARM SCANNER This device will scan all possible codes on a target car alarm and disarm the alarm. Many times, door locks will unlock when the alarm is disarmed. Ideal for investigators, repo-men etc.

.................................................. ..................ASSEMBLED...$275.00


320 I.R. CODE GRABBER This device interfaces with your computer and will display the exact code of any Infrared transmitter. Same as items #314/315 except this one works with some of the newer type car alarms and garage doors that use infrared transmitters. Can also be used to duplicate the signals form your TV and VCR remotes. It can be used with a laptop for portability. All necessary software is included.

.................................................. .....................ASSEMBLED...$175.00

f*ck I feel unsafe!

Clifford has the anti-code grabber technology and I'm sure other companies do as well. Every time you transmit with the remote, it is a different code. Someone can capture your code but it won't work because you already used it when you last transmitted.
