With regards to the 2008 RAV4, does anyone here know how to
suppress the beeping noises when using the radio key to
lock/unlock the vehicle?

Doesn't your owner's manual mention this?

Yes, it does mention it. It states that pressing the lock
button on the remote key will lock all the doors and cause
the vehicle to beep once. Pressing the unlock button once
causes two beeps. Pressing the unlock button twice causes
four beeps.

It also states that the alarm function can be disabled (and
to see your dealer if you want it so disabled).

Any way to stop the bleepin' beepin'?

If there is no volume knob under the driver's side of the dashboard, then
the system probably needs to be plugged in to a computer at the dealership
for the function to be programmed.

Thanks for the reply.

Perhaps I should ask if you, or anyone else listening, knows
why the system engineers felt it necessary for the system to
wink and make noise when the doors are locked or unlocked
with the remote. Maybe I'm overlooking something.

The beeping sounds are handy when you are walking away from the car and use
the keyless remote to lock so you know it worked. They are also handy to
let you know that you hit the correct button since the double beep denotes
unlock instead of lock.
