that's sweet then, another thing off the tundra irritation checklist

remote start that doesn't suck.

I'd rather not have to restart my vehicle after opening the doors.
Makes no sense to have to start it twice.

Been really happy with my Compustar with the Drone module.
Nice to not have to carry my keys around..

You don't have to restart your truck, as it stays running when you open the door. However, if you hit the brake it will. just don't hit the brake, no big deal. Again....IMO

Sorry if this is a dumb question as I'm unfamiliar and inexperienced with remote starts. But don't you have to press the brake to switch the gear from Park to Drive/Reverse?

You press the brake and shift once you have put the key into the ignition and turned it to "ON"

Ah, gotcha. Thanks, FrankieJoe14.

If I buy a viper 2 way from Amazon and bring it to an authorized installer will that be all I need for installaion. Or will there be extra hardware I need to buy. Do I need ths hardware?

I'm surprised more people aren't jumping on the toyota remote start+

it says it's plug and play and does a bunch of nice stuff

the one guy said he got one here in the states

I would jump on it if I knew where to buy it.

I looked and could not find anything. :|

there was a dude here who said he had it on his truck he bought from toyota, maybe he could chime in.

also, I have Tim looking into this as well as the tundra is on my short list and this is a MUST. I would much rather have OEM plug and play toyota than splicing in aftermarket.

When i go on the toyota website to build my TRD pro - you can add the remote start for $499

It shows the features listed above, but it does not specify if its actually the remote start+

Activates air conditioner, heater, defroster and defogger functions to preset temperatures and settings
Engine starts with quick, three-step sequence using remote key fob
Integrates with keyless entry system and existing factory security

Did the old remote starts control the defroster/defogger?

 

[Gene3x]

I have one. They do not control anything but starting the vehicle from the outside.

Any aftermarket remote start for a tundra will also require an immobilizer bypass. I always use xpresskits DBALL2 for these trucks and you can find one on eBay for about $50. Find a seller who can "flash" it also. When I flashed my module, I had to use the parameters for a 2015 even though my CM is a '16 but it worked fine.

Looks like the toyota start+ is only in canada, eh?

how did the dude down here get one?

Based on this article - Genuine Toyota START+ Long Range Remote Starter First Impressions - Sherwood Park Toyota Scion Parts

At this point they have only released them for the 2015+ Sienna, Camry, Rav4 and 4Runner.

I suspect that it might also work for new tacoma, as those are really similar to 4runners.
Tundras are more conservative and probably don't have latest control units to support Start+

 

[borntostun]

Would definitely try one of these if it could be ordered in the US. does anyone have a part #? Maybe they can be bought on Amazon?

 

[Breathing Borla]

the dude who got one here needs to step up.

part number, photos, info etc

My Evo One has the immobilizer bypass built in. When I bought it from eBay, it came flashed. He even flashed it fir smart start free of charge. Granted it was a few extra clicks.

The Pro has the same engine, ecu and starter as any other Tundra so this was moved to Lighting/Electrical

 

[Gregor111]

Any further updates on this? I just bought a new 2016 that did not include remote start and I'd like to add that. I got used to it on my F-150 and like not having to walk outside to start the truck in winter and then come back in the house for ten minutes. I don't want aftermarket issues and can go back to the old method if needed. I certainly won't pay for any subscription service. I'll pay a one time install fee and that is all I care about. I also only need it to work from my house to my driveway. Maybe I should go with the factory one?

I think we are out of luck with the remote start plus oem Toyota

Can't find it anywhere and the one dude who said he had never came back with photos ect so I bet he had a aftermarket and thought it was Toyota
