Guys,
Something weird happen to me today, which i need some advice from 2.5 owners.
I went out for lunch today and remember locked my car. About 5 PM, I got a call from a friend that my car engine and LED daylight was still running. I rushed to my car and indeed the it was true but luckyl the door was locked.
Only damage I saw was my petrol bar went slight down, due to runing for few hours. the only thing that is strange is should not the car engine stop cause my car imobilizer with me?
I might have forgotten to switch off car (electric start) but should I have some kind of alarm or engine auto cuts off? should Teana 2.5 edition (or 2.0 as well) should be worried as this could be security flaws?
Hope to some feedback

Hey All,
After called my contact in Tan Chong Service Center, I was told that this is normal behaviour which both Teana 2.0 and 2.5 has. This is because engine sound is so low that users tend to forget swithing off Car. For 2.0 is not that much of a problem because you still need to slot in the key to before can Push button ignition, for 2.5 users, there is no need to slot in the key as you can ignite with simple push botton.
Neverthelss i was assured that the car will eventually stop if driven without Immobiliser key. I was suggested to alwasy put my key into the slot, thus remembering that there is a need to remove and slot in each time I do Push button ignition. To me that's a weird suggestion but there is no way around to stop from happening again, unless i tend to remember swithing off the car. Think from this experrience, i will be phobic enought to double check if i really switched of my Car
Something that I thought worth sharing.
