Hey Guys,

Does the G37 have a automatic locking feature that can be turned on?
I had my ipod stolen from my car last night and nothing was broken to get entry so I must've left the doors open by accident and somebody hit the jackpot. So I was thinking maybe it had a feature that locked the doors automatically after you get a certain distance.

Sincerely,
One really pissed off dude right now!


And they took the stinkin harness, no need for that!

The dealer can set it for you, it auto-locks after you hit 15mph then auto-unlocks when the motor is turned off.

if I read this right, the OP is talking about auto-locking when you are out of the car.

OP, if the car is locked and you hit the unlock button and then do nothing for ~45 seconds the doors should automatically lock again. If you stop the car and forget to lock the doors then you're kind of SOL, you have a remote for a reason -- just always double check that it's locked

not to my knowledge, but there might be a secondary programming.

the convenience locking feature only activates when the car is unlocked without the engine being turned on (armed -> unlocked -> closed the door without turning on the engine = doors locked after 5 minutes)

Last night I was putting some golf clubs in my trunk and I must've also unlocked the doors too and then didn't lock it back, yeah SOL is right. The odds of this happening are thru the roof because I'm really **** about locking my car, a lot of times I'll hit the close button on the door and as I'm walking away hit the fob again to make sure it's closed, so somebody, the one time I didn't lock my car, lucked out and tried my door and took my 2 week old ipod, freakin just my luck. Whoever did it was likely in a rush because he could've had the golf clubs in the trunk and my oakley sunglasses, could've been worse I guess, LOL!

That sucks, man. Hate to hear it. I guess it's good they didn't smash your windows and steal it anyway. Well no, that's not really any consolation either .

Personally I just got myself in the habit of pressing the door-handle button whenever I get out of the car and then tugging the handle to check. It's an easy habit to get into, only takes a second, and does wonders for peace of mind. Even if it had an auto lock I probably wouldn't trust it.

Does any after market alarm system have auto locking? That's really the question. And which vehicles have this standard?

My C6 Corvette had it standard. I had thought the Infiniti G's system was the same and accidentally left my car unlocked the first night I had it. The car would lock itself when I left the vicinity. Pretty cool feature that i definitely miss (that and the Heads Up Display). The only problem with such a system is that when you drive other people's car and forget to lock their doors. :X

I have a 2010, and if I unlock the doors they re-lock after a minute or two if I don't open a door. I'm sure it was programmed this way for exactly this type of situation.

My IS350 did the same thing - sort of annoying if I was carrying something out and expected an unlocked door.
