I hate to hear this and I'll be watching for the answers...the beeps are probably where you have the speed sensor set...as for the needle doing the jump...mine does this every once in awhile but...

Well the 404 miles doesn't 'add' much, if any, value to the car if I was to sell it. However, at least that gives me 404 extra miles in my warranty!

Yes, exactly...I meant to write that in my post. Part of the beeping is the overspeed chime (set at 80mph). So the needle jumping to 100mph does cause this to go off.

BUT...

The actual beeping sounds crazy because it is also beeping another message. It starts off sounding like the Mary Had a Little Lamb song and then I hear the obnoxious overspeed chime. Sometimes I see on the digital display (Brake (!)) or something similar to that. I have to watch the display more often, the flying needle always catches my eye and then I miss the display message. If I am not mistaken, the 'brake' message happens when I pull into my driveway which slopes downward. Is there a sensor that alerts you to apply the parking brake?

Thanks for keeping an eye out.

Maybe your BCM is acting goofy? This is your car's brain. Maybe replacing it will cure your problem. This is an overview of the BCM Reference this >>

The Body Control Module (BCM) supplies vehicle occupants with visual and audible information and controls various vehicle functions, To provide and receive information, the module is interfaced to the vehicle's serial bus communications network. This network consists of the powertrain control module (PCM), the Transmission Control Module (TCM) , the electro/mechanical instrument cluster (MIC) , the Airbag Control Module (ACM) , the Compass/mini-trip module and the Controller Antilock brake Module (CAB). The BCM is operational when battery power is supplied to the module. Ignition switch power is needed for ignition switch functions.

The BCM provides the following features:
• Automatic door locks
• Battery protection
• Chimes
• Compass/mini-trip support
• Courtesy lamps
• BCM diagnostic support
• Door lock inhibit
• Headlamp time delay
• Ignition key lamp
• Illuminated entry
• Instrument panel dimming
