Hey there,

I just enabled my anti theft system via obdeleven but now my auto lock feature does not work when I walk away. It use to lock like after a minute. Not sure what happened but I disabled the anti theft and it still does not auto lock anymore. Did I accidentally hit something inside the car? I did not change anything else in obd11.

Much Thanks!

Ok I figured it out from another thread. I swore when I closed my doors it would auto lock after a minute but it only auto locks when I unlock my door with my key fob but I don't up open the door. I have to be out of the proximity zone too.

You had me going there for awhile. I don't think any current US Golf locks when you walk away.

im pretty sure when im working on my car and i have the doors unlocked and i walk back into the house to get something leaving the range it detects the fob it automatically locks the doors. I believe i seen something about being able to do it with obd11 and able to change the time before it locks. will try out later to confirm.

Thank you for checking. Mine is exactly like that but it doesn't chirp or honk unless I code it. There's also a code to auto lock right away on door slam but I'm not going to do that.
