    Yes it can be deleted.

    I do not believe the tone can be changed.

    Hey,

    I thought I posted this last night but I might have forgot to submit it.

    Our car doesnt have the beep enabled from factory... Have you tried editing settings using the FIS/MFA? I thought I saw something to do with a beep in there but I could be mistaken.

    Either way, if ours doesnt beep there must be a way to make your stop beeping.

    Good luck!

    Cool Re: Dang beep

    My U.S. dealer says it's a safety issue. Too many lawsuits in America I guess.Safety is a major reason I purchased an R 8. I heard the Astin Martin DB7 was one of the safest in a crash. How does Audi compare , I wonder? I just remembered...On my window sticker it states that no R 8s had been crash tested as of yet !Frontal or rollover.

    Good question...I guess we can rest safely after hearing the beep.So over on your side no beep? Personally I find this beep unneccessary.

    You can turn it off using the menus in the DIS.
