warning sound
I randomly get a warning bleep but no message comes up. It's only 1 bleep and it happens at random times while driving. Anyone know what it could be?
Re: warning sound
Most likely a speed limit warning. You can set a limit at which the car gently bongs to point out to you that you are exceeding that limit. Can be set anywhere from about 20mph upwards I think.
If not that then it might be the clock chime is set.

Re: warning sound
Doesn't the speed limit actually display 'Speed' ???

Re: warning sound
Just in case....
Have you got lots of junk piled on other seats in the vehicle.... maybe the vehicle is detecting an occupant without a seat belt on & causing the warning chime.... I often get this issue due to a seat full of junk...
don't always get the "seat-belt" sign come up tho...
just a thought...

That is just soooo annoying when that happens....
Especially as keeping the heated seats on helps prolong the temperature of the takeaway I have plonked there!!
I end up strapping it in to stop it flying everywhere!!
