    2019 Audi A7

    I have got this installed for my 2019 Audi A7 and it works great. Only issue with the remote start is it is randomly unsuccessful at starting my car but it is not all the time. I believe it may be due to a configuration issue that can be resolved. Getting it installed was difficult at first because I had to find a Best Buy that was willing to install it as the first one refused to since they did not carry what was needed to install it making it "incompatible" with my car. I was lucky with the second Best Buy store because the installer was willing to work with me. Only thing was I needed to buy a specific harness from a different online store and a spare key that was going to have to stay hidden with the module inside the car at all times. After getting the specific harness and spare key it was installed in less than 2 hours. Overall I am satisfied with my purchase despite the fact it some times it may not start which can be annoying the hoops I had to jump through to get it installed through Best Buy.

    I've been using this system for nearly a month now and have found that it works flawlessly. I keep the one-way fob near my front door to start the car before I leave the house; the two-way fob stays in the car so that when I reach a destination, I slip it into my pocket and can use it to start and unlock the car for the trip home. I use the fobs this way because attaching one of the fobs to the OEM fob makes too large a bundle. (The car is not driveable unless the OEM fob is present.)

    I’ve been very pleased with this remote start especially for the price. The actual working range is much further than I expected. I work in a factory and park at the back of the parking lot and am still able to start my truck from almost anywhere in the plant. I could not be happier with it and would recommend it to anyone looking for great range over the one-way option. Just wait to purchase until it goes on sale. I was able to pick it up for $100

    Super happy I have this now for the winter months! Installation wasn't bad, maybe around 2 hours? I'm able to now stand in my house and start the car which is super nice. The 2 way feedback plays a little beep on the remote to let me know the car is started which I also like. I'm not sure if this connects to the drone mobile app as I haven't been able to connect it, but that could always be user error haha. Overall happy with this purchase!

    Get it when on sale! Compustar DC-3 (the actual unit included) has been the most reliable remote start I've seen lately. Pair that with the 2 3000 foot range remotes (1 two way and 1 one way) and you have yourself a great deal. Obviously the geek squad installation bundled along with required vehicle specific parts makes it a no brainer for anyone.

    This is probably one of the best purchases I have made. Living in AZ and it being extremely hot, I don’t have to wait for my vehicle to cool. Got it at half price makes it all worth it. Installation was include and have had no issues as of today.

    Took about 3.5 hours to get done and now works great! I was very impressed by how simple it was to use. Tech were excellent with skills and timing. The product itself is super useful now that it is cold where I am. Car turns on from 3000 feet away and notifies me that it has turned on. No more cold vehicle in winter for me!

    I bought this for my daughter for Christmas. She drives a Nissan Rogue. Installation was timely with no issues at all and the device works perfectly. She loves it. I especially like that she gets an audible acknowledgement through the fob that the remote start was successful. That's why I say it's better than my OEM installed system. I would buy again if needed and I would definitely refer a friend or family member.

    Awesomeness!! This product does have the 2way remote, so lights up and beeps to confirm the action! Also has second 1 way remote for back up. It goes long range and I just have to remember to adjust the temp. lol.
