Auto Door Lock

I wish the doors would automatically lock when you exit the car, after the intellikey moves out of range for example. Is there a way to program this?

Confused
 

Sorry I do not understand your response to my response? I stated "put away for the winter" etc in my response..........
:confused:

The point is that the majority of Z owners do not drive it in the winter months where there is snow. It is not the most graceful of cars, even with winter tires, and its height from the ground also means moderate snowfall will trap it.

The Corvettes do this, it is a nice feature. There's no way to do this with our cars, the range bubble is very limited.

my 370z has exactly the same noise too

Yes, I isolated it to be coming from under the engine cover. When you are inside the car you hear it through the firewall, sounds like it is coming from the dash..... but it is occuring from under the engine cover....... now what it is I don't know.

I will check out that thread, thanks :tup:

You do realize that it doesn't have to be winter for your mirrors to be fogged over (condensation) right? I drove my car every day since I got it January 8th except when the roads were covered in pea gravel to prevent a bunch of rock chips. So I'm not sure where you would get the idea that these cars will be in storage all winter. :confused:

Convex Mirrors = FTW
 

I agree with a lot of the shortfalls listed in this thread. But all-in-all, I love my new 307z.

Fix # 1 on my Z was the blind spots. I put a 2" convex mirror on both outside mirrors. They were the smallest size that PepBoys had. But e-shopping a bit, I see there are some 1.5" ones out there.

They don't look bad, imo -- especially compared to the added safety during lane-changes, etc.

I'll try to post a couple pics in this post asap...

Would love to see this Nuk! Lane changes are always have me worried .... light sliding over -- feel a bump, you know a car is there! HA! lol

:shakes head:I installed a convex mirror about 2 months ago and I didn't like it at first thinking I would get used to it... but that never happened.

I'm still not quite used to it. I just can't seem to put enough faith into my mirrors so I always end up doing a head check.

Here they are. The convex mirrors I got can be adjusted in all directions inside their bezel (like a joystick). So you can adjust your regular mirrors and then fine-tune your convexes. I liked that idea best when shopping for them, and it works good:

Driver’s side from inside (window rolled up). Notice how much further past my brick piller you can see in the convex vs the regular mirror:

Passenger’s side from inside driver’s seat (close-up, window rolled down). Notice you can even see the tail-end of the car parked next to me in the convex mirror: http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/8154/zmirrorright1.jpg

IMO, Molamann is right in his thinking. It's still a good idea to swivel your head around. The mirrors do add some visibility though, especially to that huge passenger's side blind spot for the lane to your right.

And yup, that's our Murano parked in front of the Z. We had matching Muranos at one time (traded my wife's chevy pickup in on one, then traded my maxed-out Titan for another - WTF was I thinking?). Anyway... long saga short, we now have one Murano left and I am finally back in a Z - and it is the best sports car I've ever owned.
