Did anyone get the 16.2 CIP on a CCC car and then "Acoustic Confirm on Lock" was disabled, regardless of vehicle settings?

I still have the flash on lock/ unlock but no beep.

:huh: I never had a beep. :huh: :huh: Is that a US thing?

I can configure a visual conformation only, no audible one.

Mine was beep on 13.2 and it still beeps on 16.2. Like it's been posted above, it's an iDrive setting.

Is your ride equipped with an alarm system?

I believe its a US thing. Our UK E60s don't have that audible feature even though the alarm system is standard :(

Something the US cars have and we don't :angry: :whistle:

I seem to recall it was a change in the law a few years back that introduced this here in the UK. There were loads of complaints about car alarms going off all the time for hours on end and so I think the law was changed so that car alarms had to reset after n seconds and as part of this change in the law I seem to remember something about the acoustic confirmation of alarms being enabled and disabled was prohibited as well.

Mind you I could have got it all totally wrong though :D
