The beep for fastening your seatbelt must be THE most irritating things about my car.... I HATE it... I always wear a seatbelt... even if I'm sitting in the car in a carpark with the engine off.. so I don't need this irritating beep going like crazy as soon as I turn on the car.
The most irritating time is when you have the car delivered to you by a valet parking dude... the car just won't shut up!!! keeps beeping and beeping... I've had it... it has to go...

Talk to your dealer - they can turn it off using the
PIWIS
- but most in the US won't because of US Dept. of Transportation rules and liability problems. They might not have such restrictions in Abu Dhabi. Ask the service dept. if they can turn it off for you. They may charge you labor for it, though.

My dealer had me sign the work order with his comment that he didn't recommend making a change. Now it beeps 3 times and shuts up!

3 beeps sounds like a fair solution... I'll go for that.
Do your cars beep if the passenger isn't wearing the seat belt? Mine doesn't... seems to only care about the driver.
Same here in U.K.....Driver only....Thank goodness for this post.....Was planning on taking it to the dealer to rectify a "malfunctioning" passenger side sealt belt alarm....
after this seatbelt beeping fix, does it allow you to see the on board computer or does it still show the seatbelt warning?
Ziad, the Musaffah workshop will take care of it for you easily as I understand it from a friend.
i just use the passenger seat belt and buckle it into the driver side buckle. and it solves my problem. but i am looking into purchasing a set of set belt buckle and just plug it into the car, so the beeping stop when i dont wear seatbelts.
Sounds to me your not a big fan of wearing seat belts. This is not good advise.

if you just push/pull the stalk for the computer information, the warning light goes away and it brings you to the menu.
i would never leave my cayman with a valet...
Exactly.:cheers:
I'd be interested in getting that chime to stop after three beeps too.
I tried that... they said they wouldn't do it... I'm gonna have to ask again.. I'll beg for it if I have to, cos it's really doing my head in everytime I drive the car. It's not that I don't wear the seatbelt... I ALWAYS do, it's just that it's like having someone nag you for something you're gonna do anyway with or without their naggin...
Mine only beeps 3 times. I guess the dealer programmed that for me.
How many times does it beep from the factory without programming?
Mine keeps beeping until you wear the seat belt.
