All of this is usually less than seamless, ie there are often some rough edges in the functionality. See the post above, where SilverE53 is sorting through the options (which alarm to use, etc). No judging, but just a reminder that running your vehicle at idle with no load is very bad for it. You may have heat by the time you get there, but you are abusing the engine to get it. No judgement, just a comment.

With a remote starter wouldn't you keep the x5 idling for a while? I thought the x5 is not supposed to be left at idle for long periods of time.

Some posters may just be looking for a way for the car to start as they walk across the parking lot, or to turn on the air conditioner.

That's all I would want it for is for the ac while walking to the car... but the one ekvals linked to claims to use the OEM key buttons, in which case you will already be to the car before you are in range to start it.
I am leary of that one though as it claims to be E53 specific but the pdf file install instructions look pretty darn generic and referred to their remote fobr ather than the bmw's key.
