I found out by accident that my 2019 rav4 has one. Made my day! I can't figure out how to turn it off though. 3 presses of the remote didn't do it, neither did the unlock/lock combo.

My new Australian gen4 Kluger (Highlander) Hybrid will be delivered next month. This will be one of the first things I'll try. The specs don't mention the feature, but you never know. I'll let report back in case any other Aussies are watching.

Awesome. I will look forward to hearing

[@SirGregory]

@@stevenwelchtoyota Sorry, my answer is a long time overdue. The Aussie Kluger does NOT have Remote Start. Toyota are in catch-up mode in so many models in Australia. And don't get me talking about Toyota EVs.

I bought 2020 Lexus in May 2023 and asked that a remote starter be added. They tried to get me to get the starter app for my phone and I said no. I didn’t want another paid subscription. I used the starter for the first time yesterday because it was so cold, but it didn’t start the car, it set off the alarm. I found your video today and my key FOB started it as you explained. So I spent over $700 for an additional fob starter that I apparently didn’t need 😡

How about on the Kia? I'm curious if it may have got installed after the fact. I bought a used Kia and there was paperwork inside of it that indicated it had remote start but they only gave me one key fob with the car which I would think they should have gave me two. Maybe the other one had that feature on it? I don't know. Trying to figure out how I would find out if the old owner installed the remote start

Hi Steve. Tried the remote start but didn't work (Camry) . Is it just a matter of it has it or it doesn't or is it a option that can be setup by the dealer? Very informative videos.

It has it or not. It depends on the audio system you have but telling you this way is an easier explanation

Is your check engine light on ? If it's on the remote start won't turn on . If the check engine light is on you can get obi reader on Amazon for around 35 bucks plug it into your cars computer to delete that code then it will start. I have a 09 jeep commander and when the check engine light comes on I clear the code and remote start works again until the code comes back usually in a few weeks .

[@samuelhiggins9017]
