Same on MY08 ISF...
Shut down car to OFF.. Before opening doors... NO DINGS.!!!
Unless you have a Hood, Trunk or Sunroof left open..
or
You touch the light stalk settings after car has been turned OFF...

This is strange. I don’t recall this happening when the car was new and only recall it starting about a week ago. Did someone say this has to do with the recent day light savings time change??? Anyway, it’s annoying and shouldn’t work like this. Yes, it’s the noise one would hear if you were to leave your key in the ignition (or as I said earlier, when the lights are left on). Why has this happened for some only once, whereas others and I are continuing to hear same? Correct me if I’m wrong, but if it has to do with the steering wheel locking are we saying we should wait in the car after shut down, wait to hear the steering wheel lock and then open the door to not hear this? There’re several peculiar traits of this car, as if Lexus were a start-up like Tesla. Any additional insight is welcome.

Wow; so this is it!? If I open my door before shutting down the car (one press of the start-stop button) it will ding? Still don't see why it should at all, but very interesting and surely hope the case. Will give it a try tomorrow. Thanks!
