Power closing

Hi folks,

I found that if I open car by a remote power lock and I do not open a door the car does not self-lock back. I remember when having my old car (Suzuki) that there was an interval after which the car itself locked. Can you please check your locking system behaves just as?

Thx & regards,
pegas

Your locks are normal. There is no self locking.

Thx scorpio! you dispelled my doubts that something might be wrong with the locks because to be honest I thought that a car developed and built up in 2007 should have this feature in standard.

I do not understand too . It is really a step back because the self lock is very smart thing. Probably designers decided (in hot Italy) that it would be convenient to rather have implemented opening and closing of front windows to enable speedy ventilation (pressing for a while the remote lock control unit). I would prefer to have the self lock instead of the said feature. I am in love with my Bravo though .
