Hi,

did anyone tried how far You can drive without the key in the car...??

Let say You start the car...give the key to a friend outside of the car ad drive away....


Thx

 

PLZ delete..

I found my answer....
the car be driven without the key after it's started....

 

It can or it cant? Never actually tried this.

 

It can, as long as you started it, it wont turn off unless you press that Power button

 

So if I leave it running to run into a quickshop real quick and someone decides to hop in they can drive off and it wont shut down? Guess I wont be doing that anymore. You would think that it wouldnt be able to go out of park or something.

 

u can delete the post yourself

 

Might as well leave the thread for others. I always wondered about this too.

 

when i valet, i take the intelligent key fob with me and leave the actual key key with the valet. it runs without the key or fob in it, just beeps a couple of times.

 

You should leave the ikey with the valet and take the metal key after securing your car with it.

 

If you think about it, the same thing can happen if one leaves it running with the key in the ignition.

 

After the car beeps a few times when you get out of the car, you can lock it while its running.

Also The glove box is locked by the key, so you should leave the ikey. Unless you dont care.

I dont valet so it dont matter.

 

yeah...I was asking because I wanted to warm up my car in winter...I guess I won't do it....

 

Tried in advanced edit and couldn't....maybe I'm blind...lol
