Had an interesting issue with my MP4 the other day. Driving home after work and everytime I go below 12km per hour or stop the car starts beeping at me, no fault lights happening and it sounds like parking sensors, but no cars are close.
At home, I call the McService guys and they ask - "was the car parked outside" (it was a hot day) - yes it was. He says it's the front number plate being picked up by the parking sensors.
Turns out the McDealer here in NSW Australia puts the number plates on with double-sided tape. On a HOT day with the car parked in the sun the plate peels out a bit on the edge and the front parking sensors pick it up.
