Yeah you can change it from a squeaky type siren (european setting) to a two tone type sound cos VW changed mine back cos it changed itself to the sqeuaky setting.

You can change the sound of the intruder alarm. There are five different tones. You require the £4000 VAS 5052 or £100 VAG-Com to change it.
If I remember correctly, there are two european settings, two german settings and one for UK.
I've changed the tone myself to a somewhat unique tone. May be what has been described as "Squeaky". It's unique to the area.
The Bleep or Bleep Bleep when you unlock the door doesn't change tone, but you can turn it on or off, or just for opening or locking.
Hope this helps
