62 BEEPS

Even though I don't think I would forget my key in the car if the beeps were not there, today I counted them 62 BEEPS about not forgetting the key. WTF, I know it can't be turned off, but can the number of beeps be shortened it is so annoying.

tried

I tried all suggested things over the past few years, just curious if everyone who has an R230 has the same ridiculous amount of beeps.

I counted mine twice today as I was cleaning the interior, I got 61 both times. 600's must get an extra beep to go with those extra cylinders.
