Does the Teramont have a locking horn?
2 Answers
The Teramont does have a locking horn, but it cannot be set by the user directly. It requires ECU flashing to enable this feature, which can be done at a 4S dealership. Method to set the locking horn: Press the vehicle's brake pedal, ensure the gear is in P position, release the brake pedal, press the vehicle's one-touch start button twice, make sure all four doors are completely closed, then press the lock button on the driver's side door panel and hold it for more than ten seconds. Volkswagen Teramont: The Teramont is manufactured by SAIC Volkswagen, classified as a mid-to-large-size SUV. It is equipped with a 2.0T L4 engine with turbocharging, delivering a maximum horsepower of 299 PS and a maximum torque of 500 Nm. The vehicle's dimensions are 5052 mm in length, 1989 mm in width, and 1773 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2980 mm. It is a 5-door, 7-seat SUV with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and a top speed of 200 km/h.
I've been driving the Volkswagen Teramont for several years, and this vehicle indeed has a horn confirmation feature for locking. I remember it was enabled by default when I first picked up the car - it would beep once when locked, which is quite practical as it provides immediate confirmation that the doors are secured. The setup is straightforward too: just access the vehicle settings menu through the infotainment screen, locate the door lock options to toggle the feature or adjust the volume. Some higher trim levels even offer selectable sound effects. I find this function particularly useful in noisy environments like parking lots - pressing the key fob and hearing the confirmation sound gives me much greater peace of mind. If you accidentally disable the sound, try resetting the system by long-pressing the lock button on the key fob. It's good practice to check these settings during routine maintenance to prevent accidental door unlocking situations - safety first, after all. Overall, this thoughtful little design in the Teramont significantly enhances daily convenience.
