Remote starter?
Anyone know if it's possible for a remote starter on the M235i? I know it's not offered as a factory option, just curious if anyone has attempted it?

Remote apps-- check
Start/stop technology---check It is just a matter of time for someone come up with that! P.S. Is someone using remote apps (lock/unlock-climate) already? Not available in Mexico Yet. |

I have the remote app on my phone but I havent tried it yet.. It would be awesome if they include the remote start function, but that may be wishful thinking.
Also for the regular remote starters, I don't think there is any CAN bus security bypass module for the F22 yet... Doesn't matter if you can't securely simulate the key security without having to leave a key in the car! |

New thing for car thieves atm... esp in London.
They have been buying the hardware meant for dealerships and garages so they intercept the signal and programme a blank key, wait till your not looking and sod off in it..... Have had a tracker fitted to mine with remote shut down. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-29786320 |

This is unfortunately interesting. As cars get more advanced, and people get smarter, we get this Anyone tech savy can buy a keycoder to do this crap for $6k.

It doesn't look like there's a real option for any F series vehicles. I've seen a couple YouTube videos with other F series using the factory remote to remote start... but no explanation how.
I'd love a remote start for the cold winter mornings. |
