Door's Locking When Car Is Drove Off...?

Hi, I have an 03 320d compact and when I drive off the car doors automatically lock. I assume this is some sort of safety feature with dead locking...

Is the any way turning this off so the doors dont lock themselves as its doing my head in!!!! As even when I turn the car off and pull the keys out the doors are still locked... :angry:

    Sounds normal. I live disturbingly close to peckham and often lock my doors so I would use, as Dave said "Anti Jack". Should be a way of killing it though....

    Think anti-hijack is activated/deactivated via OBD
