beeping noise on boost!

[Captain Starlet]

Folks!

Looking for some advice!

Yesterday a strange noise appeared on the ep. The best way to describe this is when coming onto boost (putting the foot down) there is a constant beeping noise coming from in or around the glove box area. Once off boost or simply gear change it stops however instantly reappears when on boost.

Now the actual performance of the car had not been affected in any way also no drop in boost pressure.

Sorto strange not really heard of this problem.

anyone?

ta.

I know they beep when you get past the preset top level boostlevel of the warning.

Yeah...but again, why would it be hidden in/behind the glove box?! Very odd!

[Captain Starlet]

Haha, but isn't it the actual gauge that flashes/beeps when you go over peak setting instead of the senders?? Who knows...either way, YOU GOT A BEEPING GLOVE BOX - GUTTED MATE! Hahaha...

Maybe its a mouse, and it screams whenever you get on boost? Just a thought...

Just waiting on a sound clip to upload.

When going off the sound clip its more even slight acceleration and occurs roughly between 2k above revs.
