Alarm closing - does it honk?

[YLA G]

Only EU versions please:


anyone with or without the optional alarm that can confirm that the car honk when closing and opening the car?

Also, does the side mirrors closes automatically?

Easy. No and no. ;)

But it does honk when you close the doors with keys inside or when the engine is still running or something. Happened to me twice today, didn't realise what caused it since it was a first day with the car for me

 

[Notes]

the car only honks when you close the door and didn't turn off the lights and/or the ignition. (2 short honks)

damn :( I need that honk to remember closing

So mirrors only with a button? :( stupid :(

Why would you want the mirrors to fold when you park it?

Why would you want the mirrors to fold when you park it?

Because then there is less chance that others drive against the mirrors then

Best invention ever

Minimizes the risk of someone knocking it off when walking between parked cars.

Pity they don't fold automatically though....:tsk:

Unfortunately we don't get any honk when opening\closing like most (if not all) cars do in US. Try to guess: some stupid EU law doesn't allow that?? :tsk:

A friend of mine has a C-Max and mirros are closing automatically when he locks the car. Probably is only an ECU setting, like many many other... now, if someone could manage to modify it...

My Mercedes AMG does the honk, so no EU law

Never had a car that honks when closing. Quite happy with that as it only creates attention.

As for auto folding mirrors....loads! Except the Mustang! :tsk:

It might be something that the dealer can set with their diagnotic system.

I'm guessing the Mustang brain doesn't know about the mirrors since they don' have them over there... and I'm pretty sure there are regulations against honks when opening/locking the car... every car used to do that up here ... 15-20 years ago, these days NO car makes any sound apart from blinking with the lights (which you sometimes can hear) and locking the doors (same).

I'm confused by manual tho. It says the car blinks twice after closing. However, it only blinks once when you get out and press close button on your remote. You can hear a "lock sound". However, if you press it again, it blinks twice and you can hear a louder "lock sound". What's the difference?

The first click and lock sound is the same as when I touch the lock area on a door handle.

Last week I heard a euro mustang honk when he closed the doors, it honked again when opening.. Is that the alarm or??
