Not that I am aware of. I have not found an option in lexia to switch it off either.

You have checked the level of coolant in the expansion tank to be between mini and maxi?

How about the engine cooling fan, have you ever heard it spin up?

There is a problem detected by the car, that's why it beeps. It may be easier to find and fix the fault than rip out the dashboard to find the beeper? Unfortunately its going to be a job for lexia/diagbox.

Could be any number of things, leaving keys in when you open the door will do this.
