Just picked up my new g37xs about 2 weeks ago, and i have searched on this forum and read the manual about the autolocking doors. I have tried what the manual explains (pressing the unlock button within 20 sec of the car being in the "on" position, and the hazard light will blink once to deactivate it). I was hoping that this would just keep the autolock deactivated but what this does is that it still locks the doors when i reach a certain speed than when i turn off the car the doors are still locked.

I read the forums and some people have said they have turned off the autolock entirely but not explaining how.

I would just like to know if it is possible and if it is, how is it done. If not, then i will just have to get use to it.

thanks

not sure if you have navi, but I think it is one of the options under comfort...or something like that.

I am pretty sure I have seen it under one of the nav options before. Next time I go out to the car I will take a look if you dont find it by then...

I don't think the door locking at 15mph can be deactivated from any menu item. You may have to check with your dealer to see they can disable this feature via ConsultIII hookup. The auto unlock can be deactivated using the steps you described.

You are correct only the dealer can change that setting via consult III. There are a few different setting you can set it to or just turn it off. They usually charge about $50 or $60 to do it

I followed the instructions in the manual (had to try several times until it worked) to disable the auto lock and unlock feature on my 2010

Hmmm, I could be wayyy wrong here but I thought that you would NOT be able to turn off the auto LOCK feature.

My understanding from the manual was that the doors would lock regardless. The option that you can change is whether or not you want the doors to UNLOCK automatically when you turn off the engine.

I'll be interested to see if my understanding is not correct as I haven't decided if I want to turn off the auto-locking feature (since I don't like waiting for the doors to unlock whether it's when I turn off the engine or just not unlocking at all).

Looking forward to hearing more about this from folks that have actually deactivated the locking part.

When I was in a dealership, I asked and they said they can't. They said it's a factory setting and they cannot change it

Perhaps I've just switched to "P Range" door lock and didn't realize it. I'll check tomorrow. There are 2 door lock/unlock modes according to the service manual for 2010. I did the first set of instructions:

thanks for all the info everyone. I took my car in today (Markham Infiniti, Ontario, Canada) and they asked me what settings i would like. They can basically configure it however you would like (eg. put it park auto unlock happens, but still having the autolock when above 15 mph. I wanted everything to be turned off, and thats what they did. It took the technician 5-10 min, and they didn't charge me a cent.

I just hooked up consult III at work(I work for a Nissan Dealership), It took 5 minutes and it's done. I used to have an 08 Acura TL-S and you were able to adjust the settings from the car.

Now I wish the doors would auto lock after you get out of the car and walk away. The Mazda that I had did that...very nice feature.

indycase

The Caddy CTS has that and I had it for a day as a test driver. I was always worried that it would not function properly and would leave the car unlocked on the street so I always ended up locking it manually out of paranoia.

That can be done with a 2009?
