I wish it worked from further away. I never use it due to this. I had an aftermarket one in an '98 Malibu I had years ago and that thing worked from like a 1/4 mile away. This one maybe 75 feet.
Remote start info
Somewhere on this forum I posted what I believed was accurate information about the remote start feature, specifically that you can extend it from 10 minutes to 20 minutes by pressing the lock/start again.
That is not accurate. It will accept the command while the car is running via remote, but it will not extend the time to 20 minutes. If you want to run the car for 20 minutes you'll have to run it the first 10 and then start it again for the second 10.
Sorry for misleading anyone.
EDIT: See my post below...

Never heard of these, link?Well if distance is an issue, has anyone considered upgrading to the advanced remote start fobs? I believe it has the ability to work at longer distances than the regular fobs.
