I can't take the f*cking TRAIN HORN any longer!!!!! Aaarrgghh.

[Jeffrey]

This vehicle makes so many way too loud annoying sounds, clicks, horns, and beeps that my wife refuses to get in it any longer. I can turn off the ADAS speed warning click, but why should I have to because Ineos has had NO software updates since I've had this truck (1 yr, 2 months). Then there is that loud train horn sound. Sometimes it is telling me that a door is ajar, so I have to stop and SLAM that door closed, especially the rear doors. But sometimes it just startles us while we are driving for no reason at all. How can I stop this? Can someone show me where the speaker (or device) is that emits this sound so I can destroy it? This vehicle is such a pain in the ass to drive for numerous other reasons, and the noises are over the top. I just want to enjoy the damn thing!

To be honest, they don't bother me at all any more.

Isn't that a good thing? You don't want to be driving with a door ajar.

That will be a fault then. Visit to dealer to look into would be your next step.

In my experience, a loud bong is accompanied by a noticeable warning on the screen as well that you can't miss. The one that bothers me (besides having to reset ADAS every time) is the low fuel bong which goes off at least a few times, and up to 6 times as it can't figure out the fuel level and bounces back and forth between low fuel and not.
I love my Gren though, just hoping for an update.

In the UK we just got one bong as it moves to amber or red. No repeats (unless you switch the ignition off and back on again)

IMO you don’t want to be telling people how to use their truck. I don’t want my truck telling me, either.

the gas gong when you're low and unlock the car and open the door is next level annoying. Loud as "you-know-what"...

 

[Tazzieman]

I experience, on average, one relatively quiet bong per week. Either I'm going deaf, or my life has turned out better than yours.

Actually just walking past with keys in your pocket will set the gas gong off.

So what are the numerous other reasons?
Luckily all the bongs and things are gone on the Australian version and we don't get ADAS so don't have that stupidity.
I had it on a hire car two weeks ago and was about to take the vehicle back and walk away.
I get the low fuel warning but fix that by adding fuel and it goes away.

Same in Australia.
Also anytime you unlock the doors

Considering the volume and location seems to be inconsistent, I'm beginning to believe the bonging is sent thru the speakers.

I know people who have walked away from a purchase over these “informative tones”

That’s my assumption. I’ve had it where it’s super quiet sometimes. Hoping it was permanent but alas not.

I think a few noises are through the audio system, but some others are through a typical buzzer box.

The fuel noise is most certainly through the speakers.

Just wear a tin foil hat!

Grab a beer and just look at it and if you can't stop touching it, disconnect the batteries

 

[holdmybeer]

I can’t because it blocks my signals to/from the mothership.

 

[Tenac]

lol to add to this the other day my low fuel went off with 200 mile range but then disappeared after about 10 mins of driving.... WTH

Don’t sweat the small stuff.
A good rule to live by perhaps.
