For the first time ever got locked out of my car the other day, and cannot understand what went wrong. Was dropping my partner off at a friends house, switched off the engine but left the key in the ignition, pressed the boot release and got out of the car shutting the door. Then took some things out of the boot and closed the boot. What a surprise when I found I was locked out. Fortunately the friend drove me home to collect the spare key, only 10 mins away. Then found the remote on the spare would not open the car and had to put the key in the door lock, which worked ok but expected the alarm to go off, but it didn't.
Don't know if there was a glitch but have tried to replicate the situation without success. Lesson though is never leave the key in the ignition.

Thanks Supertrev for your reply. Just been reading in the Feb JEC mag about Mike Kennedy who also had a lock out, but with the engine running and away from home. He elected to smash the drivers side window to gain access as he was worried about the engine overheating. He did say he accidendally tripped the passenger door lock rocker whilst loading the car and went on to exlpain how to replace the glass.

Yes - poor old Mike eh?  Honestly, the lengths that some people go to to get something published!  I'd have chosen a cheaper window or rung up the JEC technical help no.
