Auto Door Locking Function?

[Stevie C-D]

Hi

can anyone help me with my first posting it regards the doors locking automatically? Has anyone had the dealer set this using the Lexus Personalized Service?

Thanks

Whats your settings Stevie, and what did you want to set it to? Mines set to autolock at 20mph.

Dont have the C-BEST settings at hand but can try dig them out latter.

Hi Mr/Miss Aquanuke

20mph would be fine (anything 1+ mph really, Lexus say it's 13mph) or even doors lock when lever moved from Park to another range. If you have doors unlock when placing vehicle into park that would also be of help.

Many thanks

Theres quite a few options depending on what you prefer.

Mine is set to

AUTO LOCK - Function to lock the doors when the vehicle reaches a certain speed

Or if you prefer theres,

LOCK/SHIFT BRKE -

OFF: Doors remain unlocked when shifting from PARK range to anther range after releasing the brake.

W/O STP: Doors lock when shifting from PARK range to another range.

W/STP: Doors lock when shifting from PARK range to another range after releasing the brake.

and then you want this one as well..

UNLOCK/ PARK -

Function to auto unlock all doors when vehicle is shifted into Park and ignition ON.

Just make a note of what you want and get your local Lexus dealer to enable it, they will do free of charge.

Hi, thanks again.

I have tried my local Lexus dealer (Chester) spoke to the guy in the service department and he said this was not available to UK Lexus owners but he was willing to organize some Yank add on for £1000 ish. So I tried emailing Lexus UK for advice and I am still awaiting a reply. May have to approach a Lexus independent garage at this rate.....all she want's are the doors too lock as she moves off the same as her old SLK.. :(

umm sounds like his fobbing you off or just missed Lexus school.

and yank add on thats just a load of cobblers dont they know its a Japanese car

Nope you can change the settings just fine.
