Default Sound Coming from the Dashboard?

Hello fellow forum members,

I recently just leased a 2015 Audi A8L, and I am extremely happy with the car, but I do keep hearing this beeping noise from the dashboard. I think it is either the clock or the parking assistance, but can't be sure. I was wondering if you guys could help me with this issue, but maybe I'm the only one with this problem?

Thanks in advance for the help,
Brian

The hard drive makes noise that could be called beeping. I hear all sorts of computery noises from the car, usually around startup and getting in the car. Any other D4 A8 I've been in makes similar noises.

Yes there is a chirp like sound coming out of the speakers I think, typically around startup as Jack88 says.

Is there a fix to this? And the beeping comes on during random times, not always at startup, sometimes while I'm on the freeway, about half an hour after I leave home.

The various noises the car makes has never bothered me, never looked for a solution. The only noise I know that comes in at random times that could be called a beep is from the hard drive.

I've got the hard drive noise coming on at exactly 1 minute, and this happens when I leave the car overnight before driving it. According to my dealer this is normal. Sigh..
