I am wondering, can you lock the doors from the outside with the car still running? I know with the FX35 I could do that, but with the RL I cannot. Sometimes I will only be running in to somewhere like carry out chinese and I will leave the car on to stay warm because it is so damn cold outside.

IS350spBLK - These issues are probably covered in the owners manual...but here goes. When you tried, did you try and lock with the remote or the traditional way? I have to try this after work.
The other morning my wife started the car up for warming and left to go back into the house with the access key on her person, there was only a constant beeping. I wonder what would happen if someone were to drive off w/o the access key?

All the cars which have the same type of keyless system do the same thing.

It is very well figured out. Even if someone steals your car when you stupidly leave it on while you go and shop, they still dont have an key or way to turn it on again. With normal key, they would be able to copy the key and use it forever.

And if somebody were to steal my car I doubt they would stop by a quiki mart to get some coffee in the proccess and usaully when nice cars are stolen they go to a chop shop... doubt they need keys and correct me if Im rong but cars are stolen with out keys most of the time.... so who cares if they don't have the key to make a copy???
