Alarm Arm/Disarm

How do I make the alarm make a noise when I arm/disarm it. When I do it now I hear nothing, it just locks/unlocks the doors. I want it to beep when I lock it, and beep when I unlock it. It is a 2003 BMW 325i. Thanks a lot.

my '01 does this, too. i can't tell if it's actually armed. the doors lock and all, but no sound or light flash.

same with my '01... how do you change it?

From what I understand, having done a bunch of searching, no sound/no lights means no alarm. You can get a dealer to program the car's computer to think it has an alarm so the lights flash when locked, but that's about it.

bscepter is correct in saying no beep no flash means no alarm.. I have a 328is and had to take the vehicle to the dealers to find out I had no alarm because the darn thing never would sound no matter what i did. It only had the lock/unlock capability.. So, I purchased an aftermarket alarm and I am secure again!!!
