We had it in for state inspection, and i told the guys not to leave the keys inside, as it will lock up itself... i get a phone call, come and open your car... turns out, the Einsteins removed the keychain remote control (!!!) off the chain, left the control inside, and kept the key outside. of course, the car double locked itself, rolled the windows up and that was all she wrote... when i came to the shop, they were like, we kept the keys outside, like you told us... MORONS!!!! whose signature on this forum has the line that there is always a fool that can outdo the foolproof design...
so, i am very cautious about the auto relock ...

hey Terminatorx5 
on the x5's the remote is on the key head and so far there is no way for the key to be left inside [when using the same key: locked then unlocked than auto relocked] unless that same key have been tossed by the open window on purpose ...
Note: btw I had notice there is only single lock and the alarm is NOT set when auto relocked after the 2min. ....
