Does anyone know if it's possible to disable the chime that reminds you to remove the key from the ignition?  Probably the most annoying feature of my car. TDV6 HSE Zambezi/Tundra

Apart from the obvious answer there is no solution as yet! Would love to proved wrong! Loving the power of the TDV8!

did I read wrong - on the 07 model a single press makes the window go down?, mine does and is definitely an 06 
Perhaps they have gunned the ignition chime and I have some car that swings both ways, half 06 and half 07?

mmm nice for you 
Be surprised if they had canned the ignition chime but the '07 spec does mention an enhancement to the key in ignition warning. No idea what this is.
If your key is in any position other than ignition on (Christmas lights on dash board) or engine running, then you should get warning chime if you open the drivers door.
Single press past the halfway point has always fully dropped drivers side. Again '07 spec has this applied to the passenger side too I believe.

Single press only does drivers door window, passenger is finger on the job - ignition definitely is no bing bong - that would drive me mad

Well, you would wan't that if you had pets in the car, maybe, but it would be better if holding down the lock button then all windows would shut.

I think you could stop the chiming, but it's a physical fix and not software.

I had a problem before in my LR3, all the warning chimes were not working even the turning signal ticking sound. the dealer said it's faulty odometer and has been changed under warranty.
I missed my old odometer  '05 LR3 HSE V8 - Adriatic Blue - Larini Exhaust System - Lamp Guards - Dual battery system - Hidden 12k winch - Rasta Sump Guard
