Greetings!

Has anyone experienced a "beep" while driving (regardless of speed) or taking off from a stand still? I did not see any unusual indicator lights on the dash or anywhere else.

I've noticed this 5x in the past 2 days and while I test drove it before purchasing it. Note: I recently purchased the LR3 and it did not come from a LR dealer...

Thanks

Do you hear multiple beeps or just one? A lot of times, ppl are hearing the "it's getting cold' beep when your outside temperature reading falls below 40 degrees.

Yes, that's possible. There's only one beep. I've noticed the star next to the temp gauge at 39 degrees each time it goes off... I cannot believe it's so cold in texas..

Thanks!

What the?

Ditto that....

Heard the beep while driving for the first time in 5 months. Dashboard confirmed first time for 39 degrees in SA, TX. Another technological marvel for the LR3.

Still waiting for the beep indicating availability of good customer service at the dealer...

I suspect the purpose of the beep is to warn you of possible ice on the road, especially on bridges and in shady areas.

Well, here in Southern California, the first "ding" of the year is the only indication we get of a changing of the seasons. ;-)

I'm adding new beeps to my original posting. On 4 occasions at a stop light, I heard 3 beeps in a row. I did not see any indicator icons. The temp is now 57 degrees... :confused:

What is this?

Does your vehicle have front or rear PDC? Perhaps it was engaged.

Did you check to see if any information messages were stored? I think there is an "*i" icon on the central display when there are stored messages which could have caused a >beep<.

You didn't happen to see one of these after hearing the sound? :biggrin:
