  • Adding a remote start kit by BimmerTech to your BMW F10 can elevate your driving experience with the convenience of starting your car remotely. Here's a guide to help you through the installation process:
    Begin by gathering all the necessary tools, including screwdrivers, pliers, and wire strippers. Ensure you have a safe and well-lit workspace, and disconnect the car battery to prevent any electrical accidents.
    Locate a suitable spot for the control module, typically under the dashboard. Mount the antenna in a position where it can receive signals effectively, such as near the windshield.
    Carefully connect the wiring harness to the control module according to the manufacturer's instructions. Double-check all connections to ensure they are secure and properly insulated.
    Once the wiring is complete, follow the provided instructions to program the remote start key fob. After reconnecting the car battery, test the system to ensure everything is functioning correctly.
    Finalize the installation by securely fastening all components and tidying up any loose wires. Take the time to read the user manual thoroughly to understand the system's features and operation.
    If you're unsure about any step of the installation process, consider seeking assistance from a professional to avoid damaging your vehicle.
    With the BimmerTech remote start kit installed, you'll enjoy the added convenience and comfort of being able to start your BMW F10 remotely, making your driving experience even more enjoyable.

    Just clarification on a new revelation as of 12/26/2023. At 2:30 in the video you mention that you can buy a spare key from BimmerTech. They no longer sell keys. In fact they told me on the phone yesterday, that the ONLY way to now get a spare key is from a BMW Dealership. Just called my dealer. $502.00. So make sure you figure this in to the cost of remote start. However, when you think about it, even with the key purchase, you now will have $1200 bucks invested in remote start, which is not that far off other aftermarket installs.

    • @JohnsonMotorsports
      @JohnsonMotorsports  7 месяцев назад

      You can also just contact RVG Performance and send them your CAS module and have spare keys made. I had 2 new keys made last year.

      @@JohnsonMotorsports I am not sure they are still doing it either. However, how much cheaper? When you consider my time to remove and ship, plus the fact that I now have Factory OEM as opposed to 3rd party equipment, it may or may not be worth it.

      @curtismansell5254 6 месяцев назад

      @@akakiki4111 If true, they probably still cannot compete. I just got one from my BMW dealer. It was $402 dollars. So considering my time to remove the control box, shipping to send it in, and having to rent a car for at least a week and their cost to make the key (which no one here seems to want to tell) I think I came out ahead buying from my dealer. Plus, I have genuine factory OEM equipment and not fake aftermarket knock off stuff. Just my 2 cents.

    It sucks that these are the only options we have as owners of older BMW's. I would absolutely LOVE to be able to remote start my F10 from my phone and not be locked down to a super short distance or having to give up a key for that.

      Range isn’t bad, it’s what your normal key fob range is. Basically the same as my previous cars that have had remote start.

    • @JohnsonMotorsports
      @JohnsonMotorsports  Год назад +2

      Depends on how you look at it. I had an extra key that never gets used. I had to dig and find it in an old drawer.
      The key left in the car doesn’t have a battery and only get power for roughly 3 seconds when the remote start is activating. Not a concern for me.

    • @RayFiore13
      @RayFiore13 Год назад

      the key fob range on the f10 is definitely further then other cars, i have a 2018 jeep grand cherokee summit as well and the bmw key fob range is longer by a decent margin, that is a very solid point about the spare key, im gonna have to have one made and then i’ll ship them out to have them upgraded before i invest in this mod, im definitely gonna follow this video grant! also as for the f10 i removed the engine and did an entire engine rebuild replacing almost everything so the engine is ready for 600 wheel and the stage 2 pure turbo with port injection. i have the AWD model so it was a massive pain
