Check your coolant level. Make sure there is no air in the radiator.

And oil. Usually if it's the coolant or oil level, there's also a light on the cluster, but the light could just be bad.

Yeah I had the same problem mine would beep at me at random moments, But I was nowhere near redline and I had no lights coming on. so I checked my oil, and sure enough it was low so my light was just not working. most likely thats what tha deal is.

HA, I had the same problem a couple of days ago. I installed an rx7.com exhaust, and took it out for a drive, the redline buzzer now goes off at about 6300, instead of 7000. Weird.
