OK - Where have Land Rover Hidden the Smoke Alarm?

Tidying up the car's boot last night and every now again, I could hear a chirping sound, identical to the one given off by a smoke alarm when the battery is on the way out.

I've never heard this noise from the car before. I know the interior alarm makes an irregular, high-pitched beeping noise that you can hear if you sit in the car with everything turned off and no key in the ignition but this is a totally different sound and is regular too, like about every couple of minutes or so and, like I say, is just like a smoke alarm battery dying sound.

I've just LED interior lights to the car - could they have done something to upset it?

Ideas anyone?

Gloss is still there, not got round to sorting it but have to say it is growing on me. Whistle Whistle

Yeah these hi-jackers - painting the wrong picture Rolling with laughter

Sorry couldn't resist nor can I help asking if you've been transporting a smoke alarm and forgot to take it out of the glove box Laughing

Can't say I've ever heard of that before though, good luck finding it.

I'm sure there's a little bird on here that will know *chirp* Laughing

Both NJF (RRS tdv8) and I (D4) have found the our vehicles chirp - but that's out side and comes for the alarm - reason, unkown, but it's been there from new and isn't a regular occurance. LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.
