Question Bimmercode Alarm Sound?

Buenas tardes.

Taking a look with Bimmercode in the car, I have seen a section that said "Sound Alarm ... USA".

Have you ever tried other sounds?

What is the change?

And I take the opportunity to ask another question for not opening another thread ...

Is it possible to activate the cornering lights function on the G20? As it happened in the F30

They sound different. I like the UK one, gets lots of attention when needed.

Not possible on G20. I emailed the BimmerCode dev. He said not possible.

Is the alarm sound only applicable if the car has been fitted with a factory alarm?

It's fine. Take note.

Let's see if I take a while and try both to see the difference ...

Thanks for the info.

The truth is that it is a pity.

Yes, it must have a factory alarm or retrofit it failing that (S0302).

After trying the three optional sounds, I have to say that the loudest is the USA, and that the UK and Europe have seemed to me to sound the same.
