Beeping on hard acceleration

#1 by Bongoberry , Fri Mar 25, 2016 8:45 am

Morning folks

I've noticed some weird behaviour on my new L200.(2016 Barbarian)

On hard acceleration, the car beeps at me at what seems to be the upper rev range for that gear. I have an automatic which one would think just chnages gear when it needs to.

I was just wondering if this is some sort of warning noise? Or whether pressure is building up against the front parking sensors triggering those (clutching at straws here)

Thoughts welcome - and thanks

Misread that ... I get 'bleeping' on hard acceleration but it's just my missus going "slow the *^%# down you stupid %#^*ing *=^%".

Seriously, I can't imagine what that'd be. I know my brother had a Mitsubishi (car) that had a speed warning device in it that went off at pre set speeds. Not sure that tech ever made it to the UK.


I started life with nothing and I still have most of it left!

Bit off topic but I drove a Merc A180 a few months ago, that kept beeping and flashing a car symbol at me.
After an hr of seeing it I pulled over on the M5 services, and opened the Handbook.
Warning sensor was (Too close to the car in front)
Does it say anything in your Handbook? what about a call to the Mitzi garage who supplied it to you.

Sidney Powell responds after Trump campaign says she is not part of legal team:
Automatic won't change gear under hard acceleration
