My Ride: 2006 530i
Hey guys,
My 2006 BMW 530i makes a weird beeping sound. I haven't isolated when it exactly it happens (driving, parked or stopped at light), but the car beeps at me for a few seconds. Maybe about 4-5 beeps like an EKG heart monitor. No errors or messages on my console/iDrive.
Any ideas?

You've been reading too much Poe, dude.
Seriously, it does sound the like the hourly chime as someone said. Turn it off via i-Drive.

My Ride: 2006 525XI, Jet black on Dakota beige. Premium and winter packages. I consider myself a purist and intend to keep my car absolutely stock and shiny.
2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter.
Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.
I vote for shutting off the hourly chime.....

Thanks for the help, I remember enabling that in iDrive the other day.
