Can the Greeting "jingle" be disabled?

[BigTree]

It was kind of cool at first, but both my wife and I are basically done with the little jingle that plays upon entering and exiting the car. Is there a way to disable in the menus? I've looked but can't find it yet, nor could I find a thread on the subject. As someone else mentioned, it would be cool to have a VAG-COM type access (I had in my Audi A6s) where with the right software you could hook up a laptop to the car's computer and tweak all kinds of settings.

Almost 2 months in and really enjoying this car. One of these days I will post a "likes/dislikes" list but the likes far outnumber the dislikes at this point.

Yes - it is in the settings that are accessed via the steering wheel control. Can't recall off the top of my head what it is called though...

Hmm, I thought I explored that set of menus too, but was in a hurry and will check again. Thanks!

It's in there...I'm 100% positive because I just disabled it myself a couple of weeks ago. I can't remember exactly where but it's in the Driver Settings for sure.

You can enable/disable on User Settings > Sound > Welcome Sound

My first order of business on buying a new car is disabling stuff.

Same here! At first I thought the jingle was ok, but it's a bit much after awhile. More importantly, my wife can't stand it. And you know the deal...."happy wife, happy life".

I want to replace the sound with the Flash Gordon theme by Queen.

Found it in the menus as suggested and disabled last night. This morning when I fired it up I only heard sweet sounds of the engine...thanks guys!

To a different noise? No

It's either on or off

I'd be keen to hear the thoughts of an A6 owner - how about it?
