There is no auto update in Postgres. If you are talking about the serial
type, it is important to know that it works by having a function get a
value from a sequence as a default action. If you actually provide a
value for this column when inserting a row, that value will get used
instead of using the default action to get a value.

If you still have questions about this, if you describe precisely what you
are doing we might be able to shed more light on what is happening.
