Does anybody know if I can get my central locking system to automatically lock when I'm driving faster then e.g. 10 mph.
Thanks in advance

You could do it but unless it is a standard feature it would be messy and/or cost. It often helps to mention what car your talking about as well :)

Why on Earth would you want to do this?
And yes, what the other poster said. You could probably do this, but it wouldn't be easy.. on ANY Volvo (well.. actually.. you could probably cannibalize the cruise control stuff on an older RWD model).

I usually want the car locked when I am driving through towns at less than
10mph - thieves open doors. After 10mph I don't see the point.My W Reg T5 has a switch on the windows control panel in the drivers door which does this but manually operated.

I just installed a keyless entry/alarm system on my 760 that locks the doors
5 seconds after the key is turned on, and unlocks the doors when the key is turned off. It was a 7002Pro from Bulldog SecurityWhile it isn't related to the speed of the vehicle, it does lock/unlock automatically.

I had the same question for my new XC90. My other cars over the last 5 years or so have had the option that automatically locks the car when the shift is moved to Drive, it is extremely nice given the rash of car jackings. It is extremely difficult to get in the habit of manually locking the doors (meaning, it does not happen often enough).
I considered it an extremely valuable feature, and assumed any luxury car would have it (my previous cars were American Minivans).
Is there any programming changes that can be done? I read in the manual that some remote functions can be changed by the dealer, (like unlock taking 1 click for all doors, not 2, anyone know how to do this either? the Dealer is an hour away)

So basically you think it's something that could indeed save your life.. but you can't be bothered to do it on your own? Yikes. You do realize that the glass on your SUV isn't bullet proof? I'm sure you can find a used minivan pretty cheap...
