    May nakita lang akong remote Start kit sa Wal Mart. I'm planning to install sana for my car. Any experience/thoughts on this?

    Mahirap bang ikasa to? Or may potential bang maging erratic ang car in the future because of this?


    May car is Toyota Camry. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    sir..uyng friend ng dad ko may ganyan...ok naman pero he doesn't use it much...its simply for "pasikat" purposes...i think mas ok yang autostart for automatic cars...kse mas safe...and alam ko automatic pwede nya rin i-on yung aircon...if you really want that...then go...dba?!? :D

    peace!!

    Thanks friend! Sa experience ko kasi laking tulong ito because I have quite a family to look after kapag nasakay sa auto (child seat, etc). so kapag nagstart na before I get in laking tulong din.

    Kapag winter isa pa mas maigi mastart agad para uminit muna bago paandarin. Iyon kasi problem ko sa umaga masakit sa kamay kakangimay, kapag start ko na kasi malamig loob ng auto pag winter. So gusto ko mastart ng ndi napasok sa kotse for that period.

    Kasi nakita ko medyo mura $29.99 lang yata ang whole kit.

    Thanks!

    well yung sa friend ko din merong ganun...pag manual ka be sure na laging naka park ka sa neutral...then pwede nga naka on na agad ang aircon...

    i dont know if yung ganyang klase eh tulad nung sa friend ko na kailangan iwanan ang key sa on para sa auto start....if thats the case...medyo delikado diba? yung sa friend ko kasi sa prov yun eh...then father nya pulis dun medyo kilala na so wala silang prob sa security nung car...

    and i think mas malakas ang stress sa engine kung pag autostart naka on na agad ang aircon...

    but it may be gud kung warm up mo lang yung engine and nde agad naka on ang aircon

    If you are is an automatic, then it shouldn't really make much of a problem (unless you have a habit of leaving the tranny in "D").

    I dont' have any experience with remote starters, but isn't $29.99 pretty cheap for something that actually starts your car without you inside it?

    I've seen a few remote starters that are being sold at Best Buy and Circuit City for a little under a hundred for the cheap ones and a little over $100 for the more expensive ones. And I think you can get remote starter units that work with car alarms.

    If I were you, I wouldn't skimp on getting a quality starter. I'd get something that's safe, secure, reliable, and will last a long time, especially in inclement (extremely cold!) weather.

    Good luck!

    Sa U.S. sa fuel-injected, automatic-transmission vehicles lang yata pwedeng ikabit ang remote start for safety purposes.

    Yung Montero namin may ganyan. Hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa rin alam gamitin. 1997 Model pa yun.

    Sa US ay illegal ang remote start sa 5 speed , advisable lang ito sa automatic pero there should be no prob installing it sa 5 speed . marami na ang nagkabit nito just for the purpose of like the earlier reply " pasikat " but the main purpose is to get the car started and cooled if its hot and vice versa .

    $ 30 ?????? hmmmmmmm bumili ka na lang ng mahal na maasahan mo in quality .

    my installer once told me that yung remote start na binebenta nya merong sensor which detects if the car is in neutral (MT Of course). If its not, it wont crank the engine. If what you'll buy has one of these, then ok na rin siguro.

    Me personally, i dont want nor need these devices, but then again, thats just me :mrgreen:

    di ba sa mga A/T hindi magstart yung engine unless nasa P or N yung shifter?

    Yung remote start ok na ok sa akin iyan. Mahilig kasi ako gumamit ng cabin heater sa umaga on my way to school. Hindi naman gagana yung heater unless mainit na yung makina. Hehehe. Ok na pang warm up ito remote start. Papaandarin ko na yung sasakyan habang naliligo ako.

    You need to warm up a car in the Philippines? Sorry, no harm intended. I'm trying to imagine it and I can't help but giggle.... Me, if there's no frost, ice, snow, or if standing water outside is liquid, I just drive and go.

    I agree. An autostart is good for cold weather. By that I mean biting cold weather.

    The remote start is a standard accessory in my 3.2 strada a/t. This coupled with "automatic aircon on" option, I find it useful to cool my cabin when parked under the sun before I ride it, although, I don't use it frequently. Other than that, parang novelty lang ito, imo. I still can't think of other situations where it will be of great use. BTW, the auto start of my strada will start only if the shifter is in P.

    di ko rin naitanong sa mga kaibigan ko dahil sa US , in order for you to start a manual car , you have to press the clutch while cranking . So kung remote start sa manual paano mag start kung walang umaapak sa clutch ?????

    naka auto start car ko, so far ok naman and no problems! :D

    but i only use that function kapag ako yung huling gumamit ng car ko... kasi my dad has a habit of always leaving the car on 1st gear when ever he shuts off the engine :mrgreen:

    peace!

    I bought one when sa abroad, ayun hangang ngayon ay hindi pa nagagamit option na auto start kasi walang marunong mag kabit sa Pinas. Alarm lang ang nagagamit ko. Pwede sanang iset kung anong oras at araw siya pwedeng istart at i off yung engine at pwede ring pang delay ng turbo charged engine. Nasayang ang 16K bucks ko. So kung bibili kayo make sure na meron marunong mag install.
