Thanks' Vickered!
I'll give it a try again - didn't work last time - that being said, the SUV I was damn near UNDER may have blocked the signal...

MCS 2007 with factory alarm

Hi everyone, sorry i'm new here, don't know if this post goes where it supposed to go. I checked in soo many posts, but cant find an answer. Most of you writing that the sound signal is depend on your factory alarm, so i do have the factory alarm, but i have only the option for the visible confirmation of the door lock. I do not even see an option for the sound option... despite if people like it or not, i just would like to know, why i do not have this option...
Maybe someone knows....

I do have the alarm option on my '12 MCS.

As such, I have the option through the menus via the left column stalk to get the audible chirp on arm and disarm; its a speaker icon that is either crossed or not.
Same with the visual (light flash) - its a lamp that is either crossed or not as a choice in the same menu.

If you are sure you have the alarm option, you may want to speak to the dealership for assistance...
Good luck!

I attached a picture of the screen i get with the options for the confirmation... no acoustic is available :-(... i cant really go to any dealer here, i live in Thailand and my car is a so called grey import from the UK. If i show up at the Mini Dealer they will refuse to service my car

Just as a confirmation, do you have the red LED over the speedometer that pulses then later blinks to indicate the alarm is armed?

I'm sorry I can't help...

Anyone else?

Is the on/off chirp only available on later models? (Doubtful to me...)

Best of luck Mini in Bangkok
