    Can I install a Remote Starter on a car with Wireless key?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I am looking to install a Remote Starter in a new Audi (all of them have the option lately of choosing the wireless key, which I plan to order (at once with the car, of course). But then I am afraid it won't work unless I keep the actual key in the car, which will render useless the Remote Starter.. I didn't get the car/order yet, but any of you guys did that kind of install?

    Thanks!

    Every trusted installer tells me not to do a remote starter on an Audi -- the electronics are way to complex and you are asking for trouble.

    Well, I know you can easily do it on an Audi with a regular key; plenty of people did it with no issues what so ever.

    Just don't know about the thing working with the wireless key!

    you can install it just fine, youll just have an extra key fob youll have to carry thats it, pretty much, but its doable
