I work at an Audi dealer and they probably wouldn't turn off the chime! The chime is a safety feature. Why do you want to turn it off? If you don't wear your seat belt you are retarded!

Default If you do wear your seatbelt all the time, then the chime is an annoyance. ....

It even sounds if the passenger's belt isn't fastened. I plan to disable it on our car.

Default If it chimes with nobody in the passenger seat - it is defective.

I have heard that a heavy package (gym bag or computer case) sitting on the passenger seat will activate the chime, but that has never happened to me.

the manual says the reason for the speed limiter is because of the stock tires
they can handle up to a maximum of 130 mph

Sorry... I wasn't clear. It still chimed when I was sitting in the passenger seat without the belt.
