My 20 plate Octavia hatch was purchased in June 2020 on a Solutions PCP. Under the finance agreement, I asked in July for a complete settlement cash figure to buy it outright. Paid the cash by bank transfer and its now all mine free from any obligations.

A few days ago now, ajw1100 mentioned this 'bong' chime could be associated with a dashcam. Yup, it sure is! After exhaustive testing, note keeping and observations, I realise the sound only happens when my Aukey dashcam boots up or saves its video files. Thanks ajw1100

(Love the typos and banter my post has generated ) Just to say many thanks for all your idea and thoughts on my post -- all appreciated. So far I cannot put it down to any of these situations or faults. Will try out some things and see how we go.

On my Octavia 2019 1.5 SE L hatch, there is a recurring soft 'bong' chime sound quite regularly. It is not the door open or seatbelt warning sound. On the dash, no alert lights or alarms show. Quite a mystery! It is in the background and not obviously linked to any event/data/switch or other action. Does anyone have a possible explanation? While the chime is not intrusive, loud or annoying it would be nice to know what it is. Thanks in advance, folks.
