It's likely a change in fuel mixture. We've already pretty much cemented the fact it's ethanol content in fuel, which varies drastically between brands and batches. My car has chirped since day 1, off and on. It's currently not, but I filled up at a gas station with ethanol-free fuel last fill up.
I am beginning to think that you are 100% correct. Honestly, the chirp never really bugged me, but I listen to mu music loudly. I only hear it when I'm pulling my trash in and out on trash day and the car is sitting at idle. Yesterday, the chirp was no where to be heard. I'm just a touch under 1800 miles and I have literally had it since day one as well.
