Hi Nick,

Can you tell us what age your car is and what model eg Classic, Club, Conn SE etc. so we can have an idea of what equipment you have fitted.

Do you have trafficmaster for example, it beeps from behind the speedo when it receives a warning, and displays it in the message centre.

Or it could be your cars' "overspeed" warning chime if it's set too low.

Does the beep sound like the chime you get when you open the door while the lights are still left on?

Does the beep sound the same as the one you get when you try and lock the car with a door still open? then it could be your battery backup sounder.

Need a bit more info please

Also, do you have Traffic Master installed?

Is it a single tone beep or two-tone?
