I've heared that on the jap-spec cars there is a warning alarm when you go over a certain speed - is this correct? Is it the same as the tone you hear when you leave the headlighs on? Reason I ask - I haven't got that on my car, but recently, especially when I rag the car a bit when it's wet, it starts to beep at me with the headlight warning tone (at between 30 and 60 mph). It's intermittent (once a week if that), and only beeps for about 10 seconds each time. Is this the speed warning tone? If so, I'll disconnect it. Any ideas guys?

 

Also, the car's a `90 jap spec - it has a warning beep on the reverse gear too (different tone to the one outlined above) Is that standard?

Not sure on your first tone but my JAP spec has the reverse beep.

 

....much to the mirth of any new passengers.

There is a sound warning when the car reaches 70mph I think.

yeah - not too sure on the point of it really!;)

theres a nice green wire behind the dash, unplug it and it gose away but still keeps the headlight warning :D :cool:
