Acoustic Confirm
Hello,
So i have been driving my 2009 GL450 for two months now. First thing, its a great vehicle -- i had my concerns about driving a SUV but the vehicle has so far exceeded my expectations on handling for something so big. I am still getting used to some of the features . My question is; does any know if you can program a 2009 GL450 to give an acostic confirmation when the vehicle is locked or unlocked by the keyless entry fob.

thanks.

There isn't any sound confirmation you can program to confirm the door locks, but under the settings, you can enable the mirrors to fold in as confirmation of locked doors.

Maybe you'd like it to honk the horn like a Chevy?

You're right, it is BS.

Exactly, or watch the mirrors fold, or watch the lights flash three times...

I've never understood the annoying chirp How lazy have we become?
