sorry no help but I gotta say the bmw alarm chirps like a baby bird. It's pretty pathetic. If I could, I'd add everything and remote start.

Theoretical question - if we could do remote start, and it idles in the driveway, would the heat come on in the same 10 minutes it normally takes when I actually drive it? I'd never idle it 10 minutes though, maybe 3-5 but that's also 5 minutes sooner with heat.

Can't stand that it takes so long when it's 15F at 630am.
