Cool, I need to. It's really going to catch me out one day.

What alarm is on it?
Usually if you start the car with the door open it overides the auto locking function or has it a valet mode??

It's a TOAD alarm.

Not sure about the valet mode but I'll try to find out, didn't know about the door open feature I'll try it (with the spare fob ready

)

Thanks for the advice!

If its a TOAD then it deffo shouldn't lock the doors if you start it with the drivers door open even if you shut it whilst its running

I had a TOAD alarm on my Clio Williams which also used to have the 'Auto-Locking/Anti Hi-jack' feature. The way I used to make sure I didn't lock myself out was to get in the car, close the door behind me, start the engine & then get out to de-ice the windows or whatever. Opening the door after the engine's been started will prevent the doors from locking themselves! Hope this helps
