No beeps by default. A long beep indicates an issue such as door left ajar or keys in the vehicle.

I believe there may be a confirmation beep setting but that can only be enabled via dealer/Techstream software.

Personally I find the noise of the door locks enough to confirm you have locked the vehicle, and I always use the smart entry way to lock the vehicle by touching the door handle so I'm always close enough to hear.

Thanks Colin. I wasn't even aware of the smart entry feature lol. I have a long way to go and a lot to learn. 

Thanks fella. Yeah, from watching other youtube videos it certainly doesn't seem the norm for it to make a noise when setting but it definitely did. I'll live with it as is, just as long as I know my alarm's working as it should. My worry was that it might not be set properly for some reason. Guess I'm a touch paranoid with my new toy haha. Cheers!

Hi all,

When I bought the car 2 weeks ago it made a long audible tone when the alarm was set. I noticed today that it has stopped doing that, and I don't actually recall hearing it yesterday come to think of it. Is there something on the fob, dash or settings to alter it that I may have accidentally triggered? I liked the long beep as it let me know it was done. I've tried a quick look in the manual and on here but not seen anything. Hope you guys can help.

On another note. I love this car. Despite the clunky infotainment. I've had more fun in a fortnight than I had in 3 years of BMW ownership haha. I came from a PHEV 530e M Sport Auto. Cost me next to nothing to run as was charged at work for commute etc. Very different animals.

Hi all,

New member but lurked for a month or two while looking for the car I finally bought after some deliberation and a LOT of Youtube reviews which was a 2015 Lexus RCF in Azure Blue. Only had the car a day but already know it's amazing and I love it so far. Only slight fly in the ointment is an inability to pair my phone via the Bluetooth. Samsung S7 Edge (I know I should really upgrade but it works!) just keeps coming up saying that it had incorrect PIN or passcode even though they match on screen. Work's phone connects no problem, that's also a Samsung but an S8. But all my music an most of the contacts I need will be on the other one. Anyone any suggestions? I'll do a search now but hoping someone's come across this and can offer words of advice.

Have tried all the obvious including resetting phone. Wiping all other Bluetooth paired connections etc. Still no joy.
