Default annoying continiuos beep!

hi all
i have a 2003 e60 530d which i love driving!

i bought it about 6 months ago n for the past 4 months my car has had a really annoying beep sounding like the pdc does when ur to close to something,

it does it for 10 seconds as the car is started n when im driving will come on randomly for 30secs to 5 mins n its pretty damn annoying

the weird thing is it doesnt display any fault codes at all, ive tried resetting the pdc's , it not the hourly chime either!

it does it every time i start but not all the time when im driving??

does anyone know anything about this??

cheers

Although this is an E39, maybe one of the sensors are faulty?

Is there a fuse for the PDC that you can pull and see if you still get the tone? This would isolate it to that system, right?
