W203 lock question
As the weather gets colder, I sometimes leave the car running while I dash into a store/redbox etc. Some cars will lock themselves with the driver door closed and the motor running, so I always lower the driver side window a little. Does the w203 do this?

Pull the metal key from the FOB, lock the car with the central lock button, close the driver's door and use the metal key to lock the drivers door. You can then enter the car by using the metal key to unlock the driver's door. This is all possible assuming your lock mechanism still works with the metal key so check first.

Brilliant! hadn't thought about the metal key...the central lock button wont lock the driver door if it's open though (as in when i'm getting out), so i'll lock the door from the outside with the metal key...i'll also see what the hooker rates are

I agree that the hooker idea is definitely a good one but be selective and follow up on references...don't want to get your car stolen!
