My porsche boxster has a very strange warning sound coming from dashboard(seems..) sometime when I go through bumps and holes. It doesn't happen everytime but i would say 5 times in a good 30mins driving.. I did notice one time that it did beep when my wife close the passenger door.

It's not that annoying but certainly make me worry a bit. Car drives completely normal and no warning light or anything as well.. Does anyone has similar experience before?

Faulty parking sensors?

Not the same sound when I try to park my car. I have never tried what's the sound like for seat belt. Might worth trying when I get back..

Can't recall if it was the boxster that did this but recently had a heavy-ish load of groceries in the passenger seat and if the road was bumpy the seatbelt chime would sound because the occupancy sensor though someone was in the passenger sat without being belted in.

...so OP, try driving with your own seatbelt undone and see if the chime is the same as the one you've posted about. Could be faulty/loose passenger seat sensor.
