Bit of a long shot, is there any way of getting the central locking/alarm to give an audible tone when it is activated or deactivated??

you will need access to the diag machine or VagCom as an alternative

Does it work using the normal car horn? What sort of tone are they different for the lock and unlock? Sorry to be a pain
Its not the "Horn" that you hear when pushing the horn button, it's more of a beep.
It will beep once for locking, and twice for unlocking. Some people find it annoying, but it's a good deterrant IMO so i have mine turned on.
Its a 2 min job to activate with Vagcom.

Or you can have a chirp for locking only / or unlocking only. I have mine set to beep once when locking but nothing for unlock. You can also disable / enable the indicator flash whan locking / unlocking

its dead easy to do with vagcom.
Open 46 (conveneince module)
open 10 (adaptation)
Scroll through the numbers till you see "alarm horn" lock/unlock
Change the 0 to a 1 and click save (on both lock and unlock)
Job done.

Not 100% true I'm afraid - depends on the year of the car.
Some earlier leons upto (and including some, such as mine) facelifts actually use the horn for the "chirp". It sounds gay - so obviously I don't have it enabled.
I've seen this on 3 leons I've tried to activate this feature on - all the owners immediately asked for it to be switched off.

Thats so true, tried it on mines, sounds, some tapping the horn (2000 year), On anther member car (2004), its a beep, similer to the toad alarms. which i prefer. Oh well

On my preface lift, i've found the alarm chirps are done by an extra horn under the scuttle panel near where the right wiper is located...
And only found that cos i set the alarm off with a pressure washer t'other week

I had this on an old Audi A4 Company car, everytime I pressed the button I would cringe! People would stare at you because they thought you were beeping them, so no way would I enable this!
I stand corrected. Well on mine its a beep
trust me mate, you are SOOO much better off than me! My alarm etc sounds like someone strangling a cat

Mine seems fine and does the job of letting people know its armed with a noisey device. Good enough for me

as mine is a 2003 model, i guess the sound would be the same as yours if i had my done.

thanks for comment. might get mine done, if anybody could do it for me in my area B'HAM. will pay of course

Yeah, mine is a 2003 52 plate as well, but mine is quite an early one - although it got the facelift bodykit/parts I think I was unlucky and missed the alarm revision part
