Remote start question
Is there a setting that I missing? When I do remote start there are no lights that come on at all. No matter if I do it on my phone or with the key fob, the car will start but there is no indication that it is running. Every other vehicle I have had with remote start has at least the parking lights come on when you started and the engine is running.

I noticed the same thing. The last vehicle I had with remote start would leave on the parking lots but the RX doesn't give any visual indication. I also wish I could change the default 10 minute timeout, sometimes thats not enough time to even heat/cool the car a little and it would be nice if it would go for more than 10 mins without having to restart it, again. I'm also not a fan of it dying when I touch the door handle, but from what I read, it has something to do with the inability to transfer the ignition control to the keyfob (some encryption issue) but they tell you it's a "safety issue".

Us the lower class citizens in Australia don't have remote start capability, never heard of it here for any car, I guess it's some government restriction.
