Hello everyone, glad I can finally post this on the forum. I just recently purchased a used 2013 GTI and had the exhaust manifold gaskets repaired under PZEV warranty about a week ago.
After about a 24 hour period, I heard this strange sound that would go off after letting the car sit a while. It only sounds when I actually turn the engine over (not in accessory key position). It sounds like a warning sound but the car runs great and there are no light warnings on the HUD. The sound is always ten beeps. To be honest it sounds like it's coming from a different, singular, accessory speaker (not the stereo speakers that bings and chimes come from).
The emergency brake was in fact on and it doesn't have any bearing on whether the sound goes off or not.
I am taking the car back to the dealership to get it checked out on Thursday but was wondering if anyone knew what this was as it's eating me alive inside.
I have a video of the sound here:

What the heck do you think this is?
Thanks for any replies.
