These cars should not make a peep when locking if everything is correct. If the car does beep, scan it with a Porsche specific scan tool and the alarm system will show a list of the last ten faults stored in the system, allowing you to pinpoint the problem.

It used to beep when ulocking.
One, single beep. But no hazards feedback.

Now, it is quiet with hazard flashes. Double lock, single unlock.
It seems it works as designed now, but I am puzzled why... Is it the door lock only? Culprit I was not aware of?
Weird...
I just hate not knowing what the issue is/was.
