Does anyone else find that sound when you start your car annoying? Is there any way to disable it?

What sound are you hearing?

I rented a Mach-e recently while traveling, and noticed that the startup sound ran twice as fast as my car does. Veryyyyy annoying sound.

Seatbelt chime disable:

And my attempt to share how I disabled all the other nanny noises. You will be persecuted for your opinion here, so best to just jump to the last instance of this type of thread:
https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/seatbelt-chime-is-constant.32856/post-736976
My understanding is the option in the manual (that video) disables the chime to tell you to put on the seatbelt while driving. (The less annoying one imo).

I assume you are saying Forscan can be used to disable the one that chimes when you start the car. Which I find more annoying after I’ve spent many years turning on car for AC first then buckling up.

My car is silent when I start up. Read through those threads and you'll see how to disable most chimes in Forscan. You'll also see why I've now unsubscribed from this thread before the virtue signalers swarm in. Good luck.

Can you turn off the backup beeper?
Yes, but it seems to be a race condition with adjusting the sound inside the car at the same time as it triggering the park assist beeps.
At first I thought I was losing my mind but I've done this a handful of times over the last 6 months or so. I park really close to my garage in the front bumper, so the park assist red beeps are on and beeping when I key off directly from drive. When i go to back out the next time, throwing it in rev and adjusting the volume of the radio as the 360 camera comes up has sometimes not only muted the beeping inside the cabin but it's shut off the speaker outside. It makes no sense but after the 4th time I created this I knew I was't totally crazy. I've stopped in the middle of the driveway and rolled the windows down to confirm it actually wasn't beeping. I'd equate this to the MME equivalent of Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A

As a whole lot of lease options are expiring and probably the vast majoriity of people on this forum have 21's 22's I expect to see a lot of departure notices in the next months. And all just before the Summer of Blue Cruise, which I hear will include the last episodes of Yellowstone finally.
