petergalileo:
What is it with motor manufacturers, need a chime to remind you the lights are on, a chime for when the key is in and mine has a chime to tell me when I am going over 70mph.  Now, Ive asked this before but nobody could help.

Its a 300TDi EDC Discovery on an "N" reg (1996) ES.

The damn thing chimes when you go over 70mph, Its exact too, it happens at exactly 70mph on the GPS (74 on the speedo)

I dont need a chime to tell me I am going over 70mph as I have a big dial right in front of me telling me the same thing.  Does anyone elses do this and is it removable or curable.  The noise seems to come from behind the fusebox somewhere.  

Any help greatly appreciated, and Ive tried ear plugs.

simple dont Speed :police:

Disco Matt:
But if you take it across the channel, you can do 80mph legally...

Edit, are you sure it isn't the GPS? Tomtom units now seem to pick up a warning chime after the current software update, problem is it's often wrong (going off when we were doing a legal 40mph in a 40 limit, for example). Just thinking if it goes off at a GPS indicated 70 (rather than the speedo 70) that might suggest a link?

Range Rover Blues:
Or it could be driven from the speed sensor buffer as the speedos are notoriuoulsy inacurate.

Is it V8 or TDi?  and is it a grey import?

Guardian.:
RRB LOOKING AT HIS picture it would gave to be a java black import!   :lol:
bet its the satnav, mine sends me mad.
