Remote start on 2020 M550i
Just took delivery this week of my new 2020 M550i. It has the new iDrive 7. Does anyone know if I can carry it too the dealership and have remote start added?

I was recently told by my Scottish friend that European emissions standards specifically forbid remote start, which would be consistent with their stand on ASS being difficult to disable (without third party coding). Congrats on your new car! Love my M550.

Eurostart
I just had a Eurostart EUR-BRS6 remote system with a Compustar RFX-P2WR3-SS - PRO 2-Way 2-Mile G15 Remote installed in my 2020 M550i xDrive. Although expensive, it solves the problem without cutting or splicing factory wiring.

I was quoted around $1,000 for the same system for my X3. I opted not to get it for both the price, and the fact that I was told that opening the door or pressing the brake would shut it off, then you have to start the car again, and I wanted something with a seamless handoff.

The new 3 series has remote start available. I know the 5 series is a bit older design, but it seems odd to me that the 3 has it and the 5 doesn't. Hopefully they will add it when the do the LCI revision (next year).

I wouldn't necessarily say that disabling A/S/S requires 3rd-party coding. Turning it "On" or "Remember Last Setting" are just values that are already in the vehicle's config. I know what you're trying to say, but just wanted to clarify that for others.

OK, to be specific: you can do it with BMW software, but it requires a permission code which they will not give you. Therefore, you can only do it with third party software such as Bimmercode, etc.

In the Control Units screen select Front Electronic Module (FEM_01). Under the AUTO START STOP FUNCTION heading there are three options. I keep "ASS off by default" and "ASS function memory" set to active. Because I never use ECO mode I don't worry about the third. |

Here in Sacramento it's normal for summer days to hit triple digits (but it's a dry heat!). On those hot days I use BMW Connected App to "Ventilate Now" before heading to the parking lot (when I remember). I also use the fob to roll the windows down while walking toward the car. I also keep the window screens up during the summer months. All this helps quite a bit regarding comfort on entry. That said, it's still not as nice as the remote start on our (non-BMW) SUV. Just have to remember to turn the A/C all the way up before parking the car! |

I wish, too! So nice when I golf with my Son and he starts his truck as we finish our after-round beer. Truck is nice and comfy when we get there. Best I can do with my M550 is roll down the windows as I approach with my golf bag....small price to pay, though. Would much rather drive an M550 than an F150!
