No option to make car Beep when Locking - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

STR86PWR · 07-11-2012, 02:38 PM

I was looking at this section of the owners manual and noticed that my car (2011 328xi no i-drive) doesn't have the option to make the car beep when locking..

any ideas..

Is the "acoustic signal" something different than the horn?

Just say beep and click the button simultaneously every time.

I believe you need to have the OEM Alarm to enable this option.

yea it's a different from horn sound, op do you have factory alarm? After installing my alarm is when I had the option for this acoustic signal sound.

You need to have these options coded using ncsexpert

Could it be an i-drive function? Or premium package function?

My car beeps twice on unlock, and once on lock. And the lights flash (once per beep). It's been like that since I got the car

smart.

How can you miss the sound of the door lock actuators? They are plenty loud!

But as has already been said, no alarm = no beep.
