Anyone know if there is a way to program an audible beep or horn sound when remote locking. Found nothing in manual or when searching forum.
Thanks

try doing a search for "netherland setting." apparently this can be done at the dealer and it gives you an audible beep when locking and unlocking the car, the drawback is that you lose the panic button feature i think.

I've only ever come across this:

How to make your C32 CHIRP when you lock the doors

Picked up my car last night after having an oil change and the Norway setting enabled. Comment on the work order reads as follows "Client requests enable "Norway" setting for door locks. Per customer request program rear SAM to Neatherlands." I don't know what the "rear SAM" is, maybe someone who knows could tell me. In addition, there was the following "Note: Panic button inop and siren beeps instead of whail."

I checked the panic button and indeed it doesn't work. I didn't check the alarm because I couldn't think of a good way to set it off. I am curious to know what this sounds like. Any ideas?

Anyway, my dealer now knows about the "Norway" setting if anyone needs a name an number to call for instructions. By the way, should we start calling this the "Neatherlands" setting instead of the "Norway" setting.

Thanks for the info. Will check it out

There are a few threads on the W203 forums (C230) regarding this feature. One member even has a .wav file for you to hear how it sounds. I had it done to my car earlier this year.

i cetainly hope this is a diy project. not worth paying $110 bux to the dealer to make it chirp.

I had mine done during the 1K service (check up) free of charge. It has to be done using the star diagnostics computer.

Thanx for the input. You guys are great. This is the best car forum going. Can't wait get the 55 run in a little more so i can really nail it.
I have owned everything from twin turbo small block Chevs to Porsche turbos to 12 cyl Ferraris, but this is my first Benz...love it so far

An easy way to make your alarm go off:

Your backup key can be pulled out of the alarm fob by sliding the release button on it. That is there in case your alarm fob battery dies. Simply arm the alarm/lock doors, then manually unlock the driver's side with the metal "backup" key and open the door. The alarm will sound. You can turn it off by via the disarm/unlock button, or by putting the fob in the ignition.

another easy way is to leave your dog in the car and forget to turn of the interior sensors .I do it all the time
