I'm pretty sure I heard mine chime with the keys in the ignition, but maybe that was with the door opened! Anyhow I just turn on the radio without the keys and it seems to work fine 
(I'm on at least Progman V25)
But anyway, one hours of the car with the doors left open and the radio on kills my (brand new!) battery..
I'm using trickle charger bi-weekly and also carry a jump-starter in the back just to make sure.
(I have been burnt before...)

Wow - that's really strange Bingo...never happened to me and Ive even plugged in the waxer into the lighter socket with the radio on and not had battery issues. Sure your car isn't draining it's charge somewhere????
I know the LCIs have this problem improved on - the question as to the chiming refers purely to NON LCI vehicles... There has got to be a fix/solution, maybe even a Progman update????

Really, for a real OEM leather one? Cool. I figured my dealer would have supplied it when I bought the car. Thanks for the tip.
