Any way to turn off the auto door locks (DIY possibly?) on a '99 (they lock once the car starts moving)? Or do I have to take it in to a dealer to have it re-programmed? Can an Indy perform the re-programming or is this a dealer only thing? It's been very annoying with passengers having to pull the handle twice to get out once we get somewhere. I know, not a big deal and I'm use to it, but they always get confused by it!

 

yeah i knwo what u mean, i always just press the unlock button on the dash

 

Hummm......mine don't auto lock and I was thinking I would like them to.

I think it is a function that has to be programmed by the dealer.

 

It is a function that can be reprogrammed by the dealer.

 

What would the dealer charge for this?

 

I don't know, but just to program a key fob they wanted $160.

 

Me too but usually they grab the handle before I can hit the button!

Then they look at me (with that WTF look), like the door is "broken"!

Ouch!

 

I asked my dealer to program during routine maintenance - no charge.

 

i know you can turn off and on the auto door lock for when you get out of the car with the key fob...if you press the lock unlock button a bunch of times in a row the lights flash for a longer period of time approx 2-3sec....this turns on and off the auto door lock...like i said im not sure if its for when your in the car but i know it effects the locks when you get out...

 

Last week I paid $55 at Pioneer Porsche here in San Diego.

That sounds a lot better! It can't take them longer than 15 minutes to program it. And the problem is that Niello is the only dealer in the Sacramento area.

 

Is this normal? I bought my '03 used and it doesn't do this - thankfully.

 

I was confused by this thread at first. Maybe cause mine dont lock haha. Yea for someone doing it before me!!!!!

 

Depends on your dealer - no charge at mine.

 

I wish mine would lock when I started moving and I would like it to auto lock after I get out. Let me add one more to the wish list, I want to open the top with the remote. Different strokes
I guess
