Intermittant buzzer
Just riding down the road and the warning buzzer sounds for maybe 2-3 seconds and then quits. Oil level is fine; water level is fine. Not redlining. I'm guessing that maybe the sensor wires, connections or maybe a sensor itself is to blame. Anyone else ever had this problem? How is it fixed?
The results of the search I ran frequently referenced a similar problem when making a sharp turn, but mine is truly intermittant and happens driving straight. Doesn't happen every time I drive the car.

My coolant sensor always goes off randomly. How do you get bubbles out.
Actually it goes off at the same spots on the roads that I drive often. Its really weird, I guess it's just the certian forces that are just right in certian turns.

Well, to follow up with the results....the coolant level was actually the culprit. I thought the coolant was OK because I had drained, flushed and refilled the coolant system back in June. That, plus the car was not running hot. Evidently, the bubbles in the system that I thought I had worked out worked themselves through. Added coolant through the upper fill cap and problem solved.
Sometimes we act like noobs even though we aren't! But i did check the coolant and oil senders. They were OK and not loose.
