SkidzHodgy 0 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Hi, I have just bought a 2013 1.2 LTZ having previously owned a 2011 1.2 LS. They are supposed to auto lock after 30 seconds of being unlocked and keys not being in ignition. My 2011 did but the new one doesn't if I am making any sense then is there any way of fixing this. Thank you Link to post Share on other sites
jibb3r 29 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 My 2013 doesn't do that. But it's also a LT1, not sure if that would make a difference from the 1.2 LTZ or not.You're talking about being unlocked from the remote, right? Then it auto locks itself, if the key isn't in the ignition. My Kia does that, it will auto lock itself if the doors aren't opened after being unlocked from the remote. But my Spark does not, unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites
WaltK 305 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I have a 2013 2LT, and it doesn't do that either. It is hard to make comparisons, as you have a European version, and we have the US version. There are some members here with European Sparks, maybe they will chime in.

Skids 108 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 i have a 14 lt2 (didnt think there was a ltz) pretty sure it doesnt auto lock and glad it doesnt thats how you lock your keys in the car or children etc.. Link to post Share on other sites
SkidzHodgy 0 Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 Thank you, at least I am aware now, didn't really like it on my LS for the reason of my kids and keys but did come in handy when I had forgotten to lock it when I had been shopping thanks again Link to post Share on other sites
Angrybird12 61 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) I wouldn't like it. I sometimes will be working on something in the car and need to take the keys out so it does not chime. I have forgotten before and left the keys in the seat and shut the door to go inside to get something. I would be pissed if I came out and my keys were locked inside..

Retired old Gearhead 201 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 My 2013 can be programmed via MyLink to auto-lock after a set amount of time. I have it programmed to never lock except with the transponder key...that way there is no way I can lock myself out...ever. Even if I push down the door lock, it pops open again until I hit the lock button on the transponder key. Check it out..MyLink has several locking and opening options.
