Right then, listen up, I've worked it out (by checking physically).
If you have i-Drive you can select to auto-lock or not in the settings menu. Ours was set to not auto-lock so it didn't. I then ticked the box and it does now.
If you don't have i-Drive it doesn't auto-lock and you obviously can't change it.
Disclaimer: I don't have a non i-Drive car in front of me so can't guarantee the second bit, but just remember our old one never locking itself so am quite confident I am correct.
So I was right AND wrong all at the same time! Which, in my eyes, means Paul (PVR) owes me a Northern beer (or several).

All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

But mine doesn’t have I-distraction and it auto locks. Must be able to be coded too?Pondrew wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2024 7:00 pm Right then, listen up, I've worked it out (by checking physically).

I don't bloody know! Coding is for computer geeks not the likes of me.

I'd be surprised if it couldn't be coded.
My 2nd E86 had that annoying auto-lock at 10mph feature - I soon got that coded off!
Coupes because stunning!

That is the drive away auto lock, something different to the automatic re-locking of the door when you haven’t physically opened it

I know, but if that was coded I'd be surprised if the auto re-locking wasn't.

As I said, both those can be coded on the E85/6 so I’m assuming E89 is the same. You can even vary the drive away lock speed
