2005 C Wagon (No snickering please!)
My wagon is a 2005, and was silent when I bought it. Then my siren stopped working. After it was replaced the car beeped once to open and three times for locking. It does not have the NL setting. Seems to be standard now when Star Diagnostics is connected and updated.

Awesome... Hey thanks a lot, I appreciate it... I'll be taking my car down to the dealership tomorrow to try and have them modify my settings...

Is yours Norway settings? I want to be prepared for them to say "Oh I don't know what you're talking about..." or "Yea that's not possible"

PRINT THIS AND GIVE IT TO YOUR SA

HOW CAN I MAKE MY C230 ALARM "CHIRP" WHEN ARMED/DISARMED?

At the dealer, using the MB factory handheld laptop tester, go into the car's computer system.
Go into Programs
Locate the Rear SAM Program
Locate Body
Select Netherland
Now the car does a "chirp, chirp, chirp" when locking/arming and a single chirp when unlocking/disarming

Mind sounds just like yours, advans. I wonder if that's a difference between the '05-present vs. '01-'04.5.

I know, genius.

I thought he was posting to compare if the "door open" sound is different as well. Waveykat's beep for lock/unlock sounds different than mine.

Let us know how the dealer visit went when you can? Interested to see if they gave you a hard time as they gave me...they tried charging me an hour of labor to do it.

I think that prior to the 2006 model year, Netherlands setting has to be activated and that setting is the one that does the slow drawn out beeps. For 2006 and onward, the cars have the setting turned on as default I believe, I know almost every 2006 or 2007 I have test driven has made the new quick beeping noise.

Also, in the other threads on this it says that the panic button is disabled if you switch to Netherlands setting, but that someone like Steve from MBenzNL can make it so that you get both beeps and panic button.

Does anyone have instructions I could show the dealership to get both panic button and quick beeps like Waveykat?
