And here is mine in the same place (UK ‘10 PTT).
the alarm unit (made by Cobra, and as fitted to a plethora of VW group cars).
it is inside the aluminium box.
same model same year. Took my car for detailing and after they pressure washed my tires to remove some mud debris... I noticed my car doesn’t do the double chirp after locking anymore. Wondering if that has any correlation... bringing the car in for some recalls tomorrow... hoping they can check this out too without charging an arm & leg.

I’m fairly sure that the purpose of the beep-beep is to let you know the car is locked and secure, if it doesn’t beep then that indicates that one or more doors/hatch is not properly closed.
so many scenarios mine does 1 beep when locking from remote or door handle buttons ( KEYLESS ) but if i lock from trunk button then no sound, only two flashes.
I did try to leave door or trunk open and in that case it does 3 times beep and does not lock.
this 1 beep has started recently, I think KEYLESS did not work due too low battery as I wasn't driving car for a prolonged time, so I did use physical key to open drivers door. But before that last 10 years I haven't heard any beeps while locking my PPTS
I've went through Panamera 970 manual and found explanations related ONLY to 2 beeps and no other scenarios , so W.T. F., how is possible such mess....

Download a mobile app such as Carista or OBDFusion on your smartphone. Purchase a cheap Bluetooth OBD-II adapter (like an OBDLink LX or Carista Adapter) and plug it into the port under your driver-side dash. Go to Customize ➔ Locking/Alarm ➔ change Acoustic confirmation when locking to No.
