2 questions regarding keyless

i have a 2011 G37x.

I wonder if I forget to turn off the engine (push the start button), will it turn off the engine automatically after a period when I leave the car with the key?

How can I let the car lock the doors automatically if I forgot to do that after turn off the engine. (It did it when I initially bought it).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\
Okay. Let me rephrase my questions:

1. Can this car shut-down the engine automatically (transmission is in Parking shift) when I leave the car with the key?

2. Can this car automatically lock the doors when I turn off the engine and leave the car with the key?

3. How to turn off that feature of locking doors automatically when moving?

You can leave the engine on and walk out with the key. It will remain on until the car runs out of gas. Once the car is on, you can even drive it without the key being in it. The only thing is, if you turn it off, you won't be able to start it back up without the key.

You can't have the doors lock automatically. When it happened, you must've gotten the button pressed somehow in your pocket or just sat on the keyfob or something. Those buttons are sensitive.

If you want it to lock automatically, you can try to get an aftermarket alarm system.

I know it sounds impossible but I had a 2008 Altima 3.5 SE and when I pulled into a parking space the car idled so smooth and was so quiet I've got out several times with the engine running only to notice after I stepped out and heard the engine running to go back and shut it down. On the G I've got Tanabe's so I can hear them growling at idle

^^Even stock, the G sounds like a tractor, so it's hard to forget to turn it off. But stuff happens..

i may have misread your post -- but our cars lock automatically once over a certain speed. if you're referring to whether or you can have the car lock itself, say after you park it...no

My ’08 coupe does not lock automatically at any speed, so I guess it’s a feature of later models or sedans.

As far as locking automatically after turning off the engine, I glad mine does not do that. I park mine in my garage at night where there’s no need to lock it. If I want something out of the car with my fob now on the upstairs dresser, it would be a real pain to have to go fetch it just to gain access to the car.

mine auto locked for about 2 days and I found it annoying so I disabled it.
It's easy to enable/disable the in-motion autolocking

Get in the car, close the door, press starter button 2 times to 'ON' (do not start engine).

Press and hold down the driver's door lock button for 5 seconds.

Both dash signal lights will flash simultaneously, 1 time for disabling, 2 times for enabling.
