Overheating makes a terrible racket... mine did it today after sitting... just a rush of cooler water soon fixed that :P

I'd suggest checking around the cooling system, water levels and censor to begin with...

The noise seemed a bit over the top for overheated or a coolant issue or a sensor??
But will check it out

Does your car beep at you when you unlock/lock it, if so, it has an alarm, an add on style one probably, i've had mine try to go off on me whilst driving, gave a chirp but stopped at that. Just check all wiring under the dash at the steering colum
