    Recently the car would make a beep when it's being turned off. I vaguely remember it's signaling something like the FOB battery being weak but not sure. Could someone remind me? Thanks!

    From what I recall hearing with a gen II it means the FOB battery is low. With a gen III it means either the FOB battery is low, or the moonroof is at least partially open (if equipped)
