01

Made for an Ottawa February

Start the engine from your kitchen and the cabin is warm, the windshield is clear and the seat heaters are already on by the time you walk out. In summer the same system runs the air conditioning so you are not sitting on a scorching seat. It is the upgrade owners tell us they use most, every single day of the year.

  • Programmable run time from five to twenty minutes
  • Climate settings carry over so defrost runs automatically
  • Doors stay locked while the engine runs
  • Instant shutdown when a door or brake is touched
02

Range and control that suits you

Two way remotes confirm the car actually started and reach across a large parking lot or several floors of a condo. Smartphone systems remove range limits entirely and add vehicle location, lock and unlock, and start history. We will show you both and let you decide before we order.

03

Done safely on modern vehicles

Every current vehicle has an immobiliser, and a remote starter has to work around it without leaving the car vulnerable. We use manufacturer approved bypass modules, keep the vehicle secure while it idles, and program the correct shutdown behaviour so the engine cuts the moment the brake is pressed. Push to start, key start and select manual transmission vehicles are all supported.

04

Add on features worth asking about

While the harness is out, it is easy to add trunk release, extended range antennas, factory alarm integration or an interface that lets your existing factory fob triple press to start. Bundling them into one appointment keeps the labour cost down.
