Are you sure the radiator (not overflow bottle) is completely full and free of air?

BTW, if you think the buzzer's annoying, think how annoying a cooked engine would be...

The STOCK radiator has a Bleed plug on the top right of the radiator. Once you top off the filler neck above the thermostat, THEN you unscrew the BLEED PLUG.

Once you unscrew the BLEED PLUG, the water will go down from the filler neck. At that point add more water until the water flows out the BLEED PLUG, then reinstall the BLEED PLUG and continure filling the filler neck.

Now, about the cooked engine. Once it's cooked, you won't have that screeming buzzer going off ANYMORE. So that IS another way to eliminate the buzzing problem. Makes sense to me.
