No, it is the "engine running/door open" alarm that was first introduced in 2019/2020.
I saw the resolution in a German SEAT forum, but can't find it right now - and I have a 7am TEAMS call so no time to look now.
It is in here somewhere "Deaktivierung Warnton bei Zundung"

If you have the owner's manual, the procedure for each reset (oil and service) is clearly explained, with pictures. Follow them to the letter. Don't do anything but what is in the procedure, step by step. If you do it right, you'll keep the trip odometer reading. The worst thing that can happen is that you'll reset the trip odometer.

OMG - that would be a catastrophe. The horror.....
But you actually expect me to RTFM?
I actually did that before I bought the car.......... I'm sorry. I know that is against the rules of car ownership....

I forgot how to reset the oil reminder thing and I've been too lazy to look it up so I've just let the car yell at me every time I turn it on.

IF a park stop/curb is tall enough to contact the front fascia, will the park distance screecher sensors pick it up? I'm not going to test this one with my... usual methodology.
My sensor is behind the vw logo. It’s never picked them up. But for folks who have it lower, maybe?

I thought the ACC radar(?) was behind the logo, but the park sensors are the round discs in the bumper?
The mk7’s don’t have it behind the emblem it’s in the bottom of the bumper kinda
Oh wait. Does the acc radar sensor thingy not function like a parking sensor too?
It does. There’s also a hack to make it always show up reversing which is quite useful for Parellel parking.

I don't think so. In previous cars/trucks, the little round spots are sonar (or ultrasonic I guess) for park distance. My car has them on both bumpers and around the corners, which corresponds to the zones it shows when parking (or driving through the McD's).
I think the ACC uses radar type Tx/Rx?

Am I correct in thinking that the groups for JB4s on VAG cars are (mostly) just for sales tracking right?
