Default Whats the ping?

Anyone tell me what the single pinging sound I hear from inside the cabin from the dash area is please, it only happens occasionally when I turn the ignition off.

It usually happens just after I've taken the seat belt off and pulled the key with door closed now you mention it.
Its not the lights on / door open alarm, just one ping.
The missus keeps asking what it is and I just have to shrug

do you have a Bluetooth system of any kind?

I get a rather positive beep/ping when my Bluetooth kit disconnects from my phone

Have you got memory seats? Sometimes the seat position is linked to a key and the seat will 'ping' when in its preset position.
