Car Alarms: Remote start ..... Starter doesnt disengage as quickly as it should., autopage remote start, immobilizer bypass


Question
2005 Mini Cooper. Autopage Remote start system pofessionally installed 1yr ago. Mini reset computer to reset gas mileage estimator. Now the car starts remotely, runs 10secs, turns off, restarts and the starter runs and extra 2-3secs before disengaging....then it repeats this same scenario with the starter running longer and not disengaging as quick as it should.  Help!

Answer
Go back to the remote start installer and have them reset, reprogram the immobilizer bypass that they used to remote start your Mini C. When Cooper reset the computer, it may have lost the proper codes, which would account for this
reaction. After that, the Auto page should work as it did prior to the visit to MC.

Good luck with it.
