Alarm Enable/Disable Audible Notification
I was googling and couldn't find anything to see is it possible to have the alarm set to "Chirp" when it's enabled?
Does anyone have that feature on their car?

You can do it, but you will need access to VCDS (Carista or ODBeleven may work, but I can't confirm).
Within VCDS, go into module 46 - Central Convenience. Click on Coding, and you will presented with the following screen, as well as a pop-up hint window. Make a note of the existing value you have (e.g. 0005885 in my case, which has it enabled), and then add 1024 (Anti-Theft Warning System Confirmation via Horn) to it. Then click on 'Do It!', and then exit out of VCDS as normal.

IIRC there is no chirp on the D3 A8 - it's a short horn toot or no horn toot.
Happy to be corrected. |

Probably better avoiding Dealer for this as I suspect they will charge you (probably a lot) for it, better to find someone on here in the register near you who could do it

VCDS is the very first tool you should buy, and it probably won't cost you much/any more than a dealer diagnostic session...………………..
e.g. https://www.gendan.co.uk/product_VCV23.html Anyway, whereabouts are you?

It is a chirp from the alarm sounder, not the horn you use when driving.
