Iv just bought an MG ZTT AUTO 2.5 v6 iv had it for about a week now

what im puzzled about is i use to owen an Rover 75 Y Reg 2.0 CDTI and what i liked about that was when ever id drive off at about 5 to 10mph the locks would automaticley go down.

But yes you guessed it this MG does not do it??
is it ment to is thier a fuse poped??
or is that an option??
can i make this MG ZTT to do the same if so how??

thanks

Hi, you need to go to a Rover dealer to have this feature turned on via t4.

This and other options can be set up with a session on a T4 :)

Mine lock even when reversing off the drive. Funny thing is though, when the wife had a new battery on her Scenic, she had to take it to have the auto locking re set, and the airbag light would not go out. I was pleasantly suprised that when my battery is disconnected, all I hav to do is reset the stereo code, and you have to have no options reset. So if you read this sweatheart - neh neh neh neh neh :p:

Yup the speed is quite low. I personally find it too low as I lift share. I pull my car off the drive and the other guy parks his. Then I have to unlock the car and relock it manually. One of my other cars has a higher speed threshold and doesn't lock until I actually drive off.

Put the key in the driver's door and turn and hold fully to the right.

This will cause all the electric windows to open at once (and the sunroof too if fitted) - ideal if you are returning to the car on a sunny day, and it is baking inside.


Lazy Lock is the official term for the opposite, with any/all windows open (inc sunroof), put the key in the door and turn to the left and hold - to close up anything that's open.

My local 'MG Specialist' who have a T4 charged £56 inc tax. I would recommend going to only places that are recommended by others rather than those claiming to be specialists.

Don't know if that price is standard as it's the only one I've been for. I would guess others are simliar price.

I believe Viking Rover spares have a T4 but don't quote me on this, they're based in North Field, or failing that I think Best of British ay have on in Wednesbury again not 100% it depends on where abouts in Birmingham you are

Leaves your side and Proportional Dipped lights, and rear lights on all the time.
Bit like the Volvos etc.
A requirement in some non UK Countries where sold.

I love it when I pull out of a parking space to give he wife and daughter more room to open the doors, and it locks them just as they reach for the handles a I stop:D
