i plan to only use remote start when i am on a flat surface usually at home or at work. when i am on a slope i throw it in gear and that disables the remote start. On short trips yeah i just hit the rest function gotta love that feature. especially when i was installing the cd player in the car i was able to have heat while working inside the car.

On another note my cabin sensor that looks for motion or change in air pressure inside the cabin kept going off and turned out it was the heater that was still blowing air that was causing it. i reduced the sensitivity and repostioned the mic for the sensor and it works like a charm.

To remote start i have to hit the brake, pull ebrake and hit remote start on the remote. then i exit the car and the car keeps running. this is where the sensor was going off because the car was still on and air was circulating. once i hit lock the car arms and the engine dies.
