torrenova Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 My friend used to be a car dealer and he reckons that with the right equipment, you can set the security to auto lock when driving away and have the key fob say only open the driver's door with one pres and all doors with 2 presses. He says that he had this don one Seat and Volkswagens. Unfortunately, the Isuzu (or at kleast mine) does not auto lock when driving away and I cannot believe that it is not an available feature. Anyone know the technicals ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torrenova Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 I thought it should but there is nothing in the manual to mention it. I have a 2007 (June) D-Max Highlander 3.0L auto Double Cab 2WD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 First thing I do when I get a car with auto-lock is disable it, I want people to be able to get me out if I've had a shunt. Obviously the car-jacking safety element comes into play in certain locations, but in Thailand?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrenova Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 I would have thought that as part of the airbag deployment or impact sensors, that the lock would disengage. My problem is how to get it to engage in the first place ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary A Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I found the auto lock doors VERY irritating. I suppose if I only had one vehicle I would have eventually gotten used to it but I wasn't happy until I had it disabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petch01 Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 (edited) Mine is the 4 door 4wd turbo diesel and it does everything you ask.

Petch01 That is possibly why. We did get an alarm fitted as part of the deal when we bought it. Torrenova, I did ask the car but she told me to p1ss off until I learn to wash her more often.
