I had troubles programming it to my car and finding clear information on how to install/program. Make sure you go to the idatalink website they have a ton of how to videos, and **YOU MUST GO THERE TO FLASH THE MODULE** **YOU ALSO NEED THE DATA CABLE FOR A COMPUTER IT DOES NOT COME WITH IT** But for someone who knows the basics to wiring and has never installed a remote start before. I figured this out rather quick, until I didn't know that I need to flash the unit with the programming for my vehicle. It makes since but the instructions don't tell you.

Williston store installer said this was the one to get for a Audi A3. Works great, much faster to install. With the 2500' remotes, can start the car from inside a building and car parked a long ways from the grounds. Great unit.

This is great simple plug-in play and you can use the current remotes the only downfall is the range is really short so I had to spend another $80 how to get a 2500 foot range extension but now it's awesome.

I looked into getting a Viper remote for my 2015 Passat, cost was about $600 plus my key fob, either purchase another one and have it programmed or give up a spare. Total would have been around $800. This Compustar was much cheaper, didn’t have to sacrifice a key fob and works just as well using the original fob. Another plus, installation was free.

Was so easy to install that I thought there is no way I did this correctly! It was a very easy plug and play in my 2011 Audi A3. The worst part was having to remove the steering wheel to get the ignition plug out. I paired this with a drone mobile module and absolutely love the pair together. I would buy this 100x over again

Product worked perfectly. Had to go to 2 Best Buy’s to get it installed - first Syracuse, NY (who struggled to figure it out and than generally we’re not nice) than Rochester, NY (who’s installers were superb). Best Buy Rochester, NY installers did a fantastic job - researched before installing and were the ultimate professionals.

These are pricey. But it works great. And the service by the technicans went above and beyond. It took much konger than expected but they talked me theough why and threw in a free $100 addin to make sure it worked properly. Some of the best service I have ever received.

Great (and only!) option for foreign cars that I own. VW and Audi. Best Buy did a great job of installing it in the Audi ! I was a little concerned that they would have the staff that was versed in that but they were great. Works as it should and great on a cold winter day!!

Works great. Technician recommended this model for VW Jetta. I didn't have to lose a key during install.

I love my car starter and the fact that is made especially for my vehicle and I didn't have to get new keys. It took a while to get an appointment that worked for me but the service was great! The guys were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly recommend

I had this installed in my wife's 2013 VW Beetle, and it has been phenomenal. In theory it is a simple plug and play unit, disconnect a few wires from the car, plug them into this, plug this into the car. In reality, the wires were so difficult to reach in the confines of the beetle that the installer took almost 7 hours to get it right because he could not reach all the connectors easily. By contrast I had a similar product installed in my 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe and it required splicing wires into the car, trying to trace wires to find the correct lines to connect to, an overall has been nothing but trouble. I wish there was a plug and play solution like this for my car, it works so much better.

This was a very user friendly install. The direction were simple and it was really easy. Plug and Play kit. Can't go wrong with this. It gives you features that you may not have been able to use on your car from the factory.

This product works OUTSTANDING!! It has always been difficult to find a plug and play unit for Volkswagens. I had never heard of Compustar, but after having it installed for a few months, I am happy to say I am a true believer now! Besides for the factory key fob remote start activation, I also picked up some 2 way remotes which work at great distances! 10 stars out of 5 stars!

Excellent Remote Start. Does what is supposed to do. A little pricey, but worth it. It uses your OEM keyfob.

This remote starter works amazing! Great to have a warm car in winter and cool car in the summer heat

Appears to be well made and nice that it is plug and play| for this car. I felt it was a bit pricey

The product is very solid and simple, the guys at bestbuy installed it with ease, I have been using for a month now with no issues. It's little expensive though

It works and I like how I'm able to use my original key fob. The distance isn't that great but it can work with the DroneMobile so im not complaining. I don't like how I have to press the lock button 3 times, I wish I can just hold it. Other than that, it works as advertised.

We bought this remote starter for our daughter. She absolutely loves it. It's very easy to use and she feels safer being able to start her car before she gets to it, plus the added bonus of getting into a warm car makes her a happy camper! We did add the extender for a longer range, which she really appreciates.
