Default Introducing myself, and one little question.

Hi, I'm a new MY04 s2000 owner, red (for me there is no other color). I previously owned a red honda del sol, which was the best car I had ever owned, and which was slaughtered by a lady who didn't look before turning left. I had to find a new car which met my requirements: 1) two seater, 2) manual transmission, and 3) red.

I looked at the common competitors, but really, it was an easy choice which I had made almost as soon as I realized my del sol was toast.

SO here I am, I have come to officially join the club. My name is Peg, I live and work in Germantown, MD. I'll add my VIN just as soon as I figure out how to.

Just a quick question to ask, I've tried searching to absolutely no avail: When you open the drivers door, does the car beep once at you? If this is not a normal every-time thing, does anyone have any idea what this might be indicating?

Thanks!
Peg

The only time the car really makes a noise like that may be if you have left the lights on... other than that I have no idea....I also don't have an '04 so...

Welcome.. my name is Jerrianna

Hello....

My car does the same thing, beeps when opening the door. My parents Civic does it too. I still don't understand why.

Hmm I guess having the car for 4.5 years you don't even think of these things anymore

I've never heard it on a '00 or '01 car. Maybe an update to the immobilizer system.

See no one pays attention to this beeping


*edited...


Just went out to the car and yes there is beeping. I have had an alarm since the beginning so it may have to do with that

Thanks for the replies, I won't worry about the beep and will assume that it's just the car saying hello. I've checked to see if anything is on or not-on that should be, etc but I can't find a thing out of order.
