Long beep at start
I have a 2016 Rx350 Executive with 30,000 KM. Just this week the car started to make a long continuous beep for a couple seconds when starting the car. There are no warning messages. The dash goes through it's test procedure during this time, so every light comes on and then goes off. There seems to be nothing wrong with the car, just an annoying beep at every start-up that was not there before.
It also goes off when the rear driver door is opened or the tailgate, but not when any other door is opened...
Any ideas what that could be? Maybe alarm related?

You were really close! I called the dealer this morning and they told me it is probably the second row power folding seats. The driver side seat was not all the way up. Just bought the car used a few months ago and still figuring out all the quirks. This is a Canadian "Executive" package which doesn't exist for US RX350s, but basically adds almost all the available options to it, including second row power fold seats...

Did that include the Rear Entertainment System, which was available in 2016? We have the electric folding and heated seats on our US 450h Lux. The only other option available when we bought ours was the Rear Entertainment System. I've never seen one on a 4th Gen RX nor am I interested in one.
