Default AU II XR8 ute inst cluster beep.

Lately I have been noticing a beep coming from the instrument cluster. It's been happening on random occasions only when wheels in motion though. There seems to be no even spacing between beeps and the cluster has no warning lights, no park brake, no nothing when the beep is sounding. It's a different tone beep to the one you would here when fuel if low. It's perhaps more similar to the tri tone that sounds when the head lights are left on when the car is turned off.
If anyone else has exerience this before, it would be much appreciated if you could shed a little light on the topic!
Thanks.

Haha, I couldn't get over this when it happened to me. If it wasn't for these forums I'd probably still be looking for it!

Probably a nice little feature, but you'd think it would be explained somewhere.
