Hey everyone,
I DO NOT have the factory BMW alarm on the new 2004 3er wagon, but I did have my dealer program the exterior lights to flash when I lock/unlock the car with the key.
I wanted it to chirp when locking/unlocking, but they dealer told me that is only possible with the factory alarm. I also wanted the clown nose on the rearview mirror to blink when the car was locked....but again was told that's only possible with the alarm.
NEW TODAY: If I lock my car with the key by pushing the lock button one time, the car locks. If I push the lock button, and then push it again.....after a few seconds the clown nose BLINKS...just like in our X5 and Z8 that do have the factory alarm.
Did I find something new? I am so excited. I have flashing lights and a blinking clown nose. Wow....felt like Christmas today.
