Try changing your key fob battery. Should solve it.

It's a standard sized battery - CR2032 IIRC - and I got one in Morrisons for about £2. The LR (st|d)ealer want ~£5 for one!

HTH :)
Some say that this is just a random collection of letters, and that it can only be
understood by Top Gear's tame racing driver. All we know is, it's called The Sig.

Damn I am going to try that on mine. i just thought it was the seat belt moving as it doesnt recoil properly sometimes :oops:
However my daughter thinks its great as i can make it stop just by saying the magic word.. and turning the ignition on at the same time (she is only 5!!)
Cheers

hmm, one to try as my new one bleeps at me when I unlock and get in and isn't quiet until ignition key is turned to II.  I brought 5 of the batteries off ebay for the Disco fob, so I think I'll try this.

Cheers for this, if it works :D

many thanks from myself and the chap down the road who also has a Freelander.  New battery fitted and no annoying beeping when unlocking the car :D
