• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Remote start

Sooooooo....WISKEY TANGO FOXTROT!!!!????? The damned things are built in GA. What to hell are WE??? An afterthought????
You got the app 😅
We don't have it here.
 
I have a button in my key fob to start the car remotely. Just press the lock button, then not later than four seconds you should press/hold the car start button.

HUH??

R U in the USA or some other country?

Well go figure.... I would have thought that the U.S. would at least have a choice... Now we will be carrying around a second fob if we choose to have the RS installed. There goes another $2-300...

Not necessarily..... it all depends on what RS you want.

I've seen the OEM key fobs used in conjunction with aftermarket RS. The range will not be the best, but that's where you add-on a Viper Smart Start or Drone Mobile to compliment that RS with virtually an unlimited range (provided you have signal) using their respective app.
 
I am in Oman.

That explains it. Different builds going to UAE, Canada, and probably other places. I watched a video from what I think was from South Korea and the guy was driving a Telluride with a diesel engine. Do all the Tellurides get built in West Point, GA.?? Anyone know?

Howdy,

Pictures... or it didn't happen. :)
 
We just picked up my Wife's brand new Telluride today.
Does anyone know if after the free year, do you have to pro-actively subscribe to the UVO service,
or is it one of those annoying things where they auto-renew/start charging you if you do not remember to cancel once the free year is up?
(Hoping the prices have come down dramatically a year from now.)

Answer to your first question is "Yes".... and "No" to your second question.

Go to the UVO Subscription portion of the site once you complete your initial registration/subscription (1 yr. complimentary) to get more details.

Congrats on your wife's new ride.

Since I am at work, and the car at home. I can't take a photo of key fob right now. But, check this out. This is how it looks like, I found this online.

Judging from the picture of that remote compared to mine I am thinking that the pictures on the buttons are the only difference. I’ve seen with most of the aftermarket remote starters that work almost plug n play with factory FOB‘s that you can reprogram buttons on the remote to do what you need to. For example my S model does not have an electric remote hatch, so that button does nothing for me. But I could reprogram it for remote start or possibly a triple press of the lock engages the remote start if programmed that way?

Yes. with the Idatastart or viper you press the lock button three times to start. I got a quote on install for viper for $350. They said there is no harness for either and they have to tap into the wiring. There is a youtube video to install the Idatastart. Not for the feint of heart though. Palisade does have remote start on keyfob. but not on Santa fe's.
P,S.
$350 to install 7pin connector pin to towing package if anyone is interested in that oversight by Kia and Hyundai.

No T-harness yet, but I’m guessing it’s just a matter of time. I’m guessing by the time my free UVO expires there will be a T-harness and possibly lower the install cost and time or even offer a DIY option.

I'm on the same boat. Hoping that a T-harness will be available next year. I've never done a DIY w/ a T-harness before, but looks pretty straightforward.
I'm still debating between the Drone Mobile or Viper Smart Start for the RS/app portion though :unsure:

I have read on the Kia web site thst the the Telluride comes with remote start as standard as long as you have the UVO app and subscription. When I asked the Kia dealer they said it does not have remote start. Does anyone know what the answer is?

it doesn’t have a “key” remote start. You have to use the app and it’s kinda slow.

How long the free subscription for remote start?
 
Also how long the time of remote start? Any idea to extend the timer while in the remote start mode?
