It's an iDrive setting. Vehicle Settings --> Door Locks --> Confirmation.

You can set/unset all independently: flash on lock, flash on unlock, beep on lock, beep on unlock. The beep isn't very loud on my car.

EU cars need coding for the chirp on lock/unlock function to come up on the idrive. You'll need a diagnostics cable and ncsexpert
