C5 Alarm System
I was just wondering if there was any way to put the alarm system in valet mode. If there is a way let me know.
In addition is there a way to silently arm the the alarm?
Thanks

If you're getting a horn beep on lock, that is a feature to confirm the car locked and that can be disabled.

The alarm system is passive. You lock the doors, it is armed. Unlock and its disarmed. There is no audible confirmation or valet option. If the alarm does go off, it is just the horn beeping. If you are getting a chirp or siren sound from your car, that is aftermarket.

I did check the manual under options and I see the procedure for making it silent arming so I have that info. Thanks for the valet mode info!!
