Yea i know this is probably a dumb newb question... but- Everytime i use my auto pilot and i warp to the next gate in line I come out of warp about 15k from the gate.. Is there somewhere I can change this for the autopilot.. I know you can click warp to 0 for a single warp but i cant figure out how to change it for autopilot????

Autopilot will always do 15Km out. It's not a setting.
Really, you should be using Warp to Zero if you're at your PC playing. Makes the trips faster and is safer (from pirates).
You should never use autopilot if you have expensive cargo, can't afford to lose your ship, or are in lowsec space.
I have a page on travel in my guide which covers some other points you might enjoy reading. -

That's the downside of using autopilot, it can't be changed. You've got to weigh up the area you're in and whether you're willing to stay by your keyboard and choose which one you want. In my experience, autopilot tends to be 3-4x slower than manual warp for the big ships, so I very rarely use it

In fact, I believe that CCP were a little reluctant to bring in Warp-To-Zero; they mainly did so to relieve stress on the server (from all the bookmarks people had), but one of the conditions was that autopilot would continue to warp to 15.
If autopilot could warp to zero, then it'd be almost impossible to catch an autopiloted small ship - it'd remove a lot of the risk-reward balance that is crucial to the game.

Not to dredge up a flame war, but Warp-To-Zero has allready ruined an important part of EVE's atmosphere. there's no visible traffic anymore.

Oh Darn! You mean that punk with nothing better to do in their battlecruiser than blow up noobs in there noob ship in .4 space for no reason. ewww. you got my civilian mining laser. Man that will probably net you a real ment.. NOT!! I left the game and was much more willing to return after I saw that they had made that "Warp to 0" change.
As for auto pilot warping to 15km out, I can live with it, i only use autopilot on empty shuttles and they move quick enough any how.
