Remote Start Woes
Temperature was somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 to 14 degrees F. Pushed lock on key fob once, twice and third time hold. Car burps once and does not start. Try again, same thing. ICE burps once and no starting.
Go out to car, get in, punch start button, ICE starts and runs.
Happened twice two different days and the previously day, luckily in the middle of the blizzard, it remote started fine.
Factory Remote Start - what is going wrong? Cheap gas?
Thanks,

I get the same thing. Although mine is aftermarket...it will burp a couple times but never turn over and then I go out and start it right up....it's like she is pissed off and wants to share the cold with me....haha

Anita is right, those batteries are only good for one year.
By the way Kitlz, if you dont mind me asking. I have been trying to figure out what that thing is in your avatar, is it a robot or something?

It is Sylvester. I have him 'strapped' in the backseat where the pull for the middle console is. Picked him up years ago during the beanie babies craze. Geez, I thought it was obvious. Other people's avatars, ???

(Anita, I'm having them replace my rear "L" logo again. It's going bad like the first one did. You might want to check yours when you wash again.)

David, glad the battery change worked for you. Note to self, test key fob outside of garage 
The 450h is somewhat clean. Will check the logo tomorrow. I wonder what's going on with that. It's on the HS forum too.
