Can't figure out what this chime is?
I am getting a "dot" chime (4 times) when shifting into reverse/into park from reverse, have not totally figured it out yet. I had Benz-Ninja remove the seatbelt "gong" a while back. I have never heard a reverse "gong", don't know if the C217 has it, but Benz-Ninja i think offers to remove it if it does have it. What I'm hearing might have nothing to do with shifting gears. I searched the PDF C217 owners manual but could not find anything. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

No insight into what it is - only to report that my C217 doesn't chime like you describe.

Just a shot in the dark..... Given that it's been coded, any chance it's the e-brake warning...? But it would do it going into a forward gear too...

Yeah, I still have not figured it out. E-brake was coded out also when seatbelt "gong" was done. Thanks for the idea. I will update when/if I find out what is going on.
