It makes me so happy to hear this is legit. Can't wait for someone to 100% confirm it. The only other tech feature I wish the base models had was the digital key. I'd love to ditch my key fob and just use my phone as a key.

Hmmm. The last car I had with remote start used the fob, so it was kind of useless since you had to be rather close to the car for it to work. Using the app would solve that problem. It is freakin' hot here this summer, so I'm tempted, but I'm also not real keen on having the car idle for a few minutes like that. Although I guess it would also be a benefit in the winter. My M4 is my DD.

Can also confirm remote start working on 6MT.
The 2 ways to use it I have discovered: 1. mybmw app using climitization schedule or 2. you can use the fob by pressing lock button 3 times and holding on 3rd pres for 2 seconds, same to stop the engine. I like this alot and would have added at purchase if it was available. At least we have it now. |

During the summer, cars get scorching hot right before leaving work and I think this will be a good option to have. |
