Constant "Beeping" While Driving - WTF?

86 N/A.

After driving for a bit, or maybe its only after I halfway get on it? I get this constant...beep...beep...beep...beep...beep, anyone have a clue what this is?

Thanks a much from a rotary newbie.

Is it a beep or a buzz?

If it is a beep, and they come in counts of 5, then it is the power steering computer signalling a fault.

If it is a buzz, you have low coolant or low oil.

Ya if you are low on coolant it will buzz or if the coolant level sensor on the radiator is not grounded... the coolant acts like a ground.. The sensor looks like a plastic bolt with a wire check that wire for breakage...

Did you replace or mess with the power stearing at all?
