Default One Beep Every 30 Minutes

2011 GS 350 beeps once about every 30 minutes. I've tried everything I can think of. It's driving me insane.

you're going to have to be more specific than that.

while it's parked, while you're driving, are there any indicator lights that come on, night/day driving, etc.....

Usually beeps are accompanied by a message on the display which tells you why it is beeping.

While the car is off. It doesn't matter whether it is locked or unlocked. windows are up sun roof is closed. It is one prolonged beep. maybe a full 1-2 seconds.

that's what I'm thinking. I've been out of town for a couple weeks and don't go back for 2 weeks. No dealerships nearby but I can hack it for another couple. I called them and they were completely stumped too.

Are you sure you have it turned off meaning you don't have it in accessory mode? If so it will be upset that the fob is not nearby the car.

Wait is it the sound it makes when you press the button to open the trunk?
