Why is the remote start only 10 minutes… anyone else feel this way?

Maybe try getting a block heater with a timer. That could help a lot.

I hate it too. Sure, driving warms it faster, but how can you drive if you can’t see out the windows? I like the idea someone suggested about doing two warmups—one without fans and one with. Definitely going to try that.

I think most newer cars have a 10-minute limit. With Hyundai, you can restart it up to three times. My app sends me a notification when the remote start stops, so I just restart it from there if I’m not ready to leave yet.

Mazdas do 15 minutes. Maybe time for a change?

A minor inconvenience, and you’re ready to spend $30k on a new car? Seems extreme.

Finally, someone gets it. Use your brain for once!
