W212 E550 Sedan Remote Start with DEI Responder Interface

[abdullahal561]

These sounds scare me. its like an Atomic Bomb gonna explode in a sec. lol

[AnaMalit]

I thought you can't put a remote start on mercedes, what kind of viper is that??

[Vurner01]

OMG i'm gonna cryyyyyyyyyy :'(, that was beatifull, i'm just stuying for buy my own mercedes x) haha

[markkjay]

Remote start and other security features are really convenient and great to have.. but I don't understand why they lag way too much. Just look at the delay between a simple lock or unlock button press and the moment the car actually does something.

[sclassbenz]

would this work on a 02 w220 s class?

[drmomofarrag]

can you us e the regular mercedes alarm but have the viper start button

[PkBooYa]

From a beautiful remote to a hideous remote...

[mendeno]

Any idea where I can get this installed for my W212 in the UK?

[FowVayJetta]

Can you do this to any car with a VIPER alarm system? or does it only work on a Mercedes? my car has an electrically opened trunk and central locking. will it work?

[catch9966]

@FowVayJetta You can add a newer viper system to your vehicle and it will have this or similar remote with the same features...

[rducks1]

@FowVayJetta does it work on 2010 lexus ls460l?

[FowVayJetta]

@rducks1 I wish I could say. I have never owned a Lexus, so I can't say. sorry

Awesome stuff guys, just a few questions:

Does the Smartkey come with alarm sensors? As in, let's say your car alarm is triggered, would the it warn you? And if it does, would it state like the car's towed or the front passenger door's being broken into?

How does the antenna (500m range) fit on the vehicle? Do you add an extra one or retrofit it to the MB stock antenna housing?

With the external remote control, can you use that solely without the MB keyfob?

Is it compatible with keyless-go?

[catch9966]

@Jasontwt4ever The system currently does not have any alarm interface or sensors but we are working on adding this as an option for 2011. The extended range antenna can be mounted in a few spots.. for best range it is recommended to mount it on the windscreen at the top. If you want a more hidden mount it can be placed above the headliner which will make it invisible but shorten the range by about 10%.

[catch9966]

@Jasontwt4ever if you want to use the external remote you do not actually need to use the factory keyfob except to actually take over control and drive the vehicle. The steering/gearshift remain locked until a vaild key is present via keyless go or inserted in the ignition. And yes the smartkey starter is compatible with keyless go (push-to-start)

[Jasontwt4ever]

@catch9966 Thank you so much for the info. Would be great if the alarm sensor/warning system could be fitted in as well. Out of curiosity, I'm living in an apartment and my vehicle is 14 floors below me. Any ideas if the remote start would work?

And how noticeable is the extended range antenna mount on the windscreen? Any photos of a customer's vehicle perhaps?

[Motionman665]

stupid sounds..

[yumyumluckycharms]

Lol... every time i "magically" turn on my Tahoe... people around the parking lot have the "what the fuck!!???" face XD

[GoldenArcher62]

I love the new E-Class sedans, can't wait for wagons either, nice features on the remotes anyway.

[06Denied]

Why do you want to start your car without sitting inside? What's the reason for it?

[mikvot]

@06Denied

Really? Such a stupid question. Do you live someplace that gets cold? There's your reason.

[06Denied]

@mikvot

Hey, thanks for the compliment:

Yes, i do. But is also live someplace, that has expensive Prices of fuel. And maybe it takes a ride of five minutes, to have a warm car.

[proteanview]

Das ist 'schweet'

[nya13]

The trunk opening feature is in case someone is trying to force themselves ito your trunk and you want knock them out.....

[bolunishka]

Great jon guys!

I have an w203 from'02 and no one in my country knows how to remote start it.

Would you please let me know what do I need in order to acheive the remote start of my MB? Is it a kind of adapter + remotestart alarm or.....???

Thanks. Or just drop me an e-mail on andrei.bolun at yaoo,com

[catch9966]

We have the W203 covered back to mid model year 2002 so chances are that we have your vehicle covered.( you would need to check the key cylinder configuration for your model). Our product is special in that it is the remote starter+data interface all built into one unit. It uses the factory keyfob to start the vehicle (about 30 m range) or you also have the option of adding an external remote control and antenna which will give you 500 m range.

[bolunishka]

Good. Please let me know what exactly should I check on key cilinder. How can I get more information regarding features tech specs and a couple of your units. If you think it is easier, please drop me a mail.

[adragon06]

is this option just with E550 or E350 also got one?

[catch9966]

The smartkey starter works with all the new models... E 550 and 350 have been tested...

[adragon06]

thanks

[DADEE23]

ANYONE CAN GET THIS ON ANY CAR.

[Simpozij]

cool :)

[santino1545]

mercedes gives you a fabulous key for the car, simple, with buttons and small, and u put that to your car? wtf, u are crazy...my god

[catch9966]

actually you dont have to use the big remote... its only for people that need to start the vehicle from further than the 150ft range that the factory key fob offers...

[Diegommk]

I have a Quick question why do you use AUX 2 for pop trunk ? anyways...I've following you guys way before the MB remote starts and I am amazed how far you guys have gotten I remember I once try to do one the car end up in the MB dealer And i end up paying almost 3k on repairs but am glad you guys have a solution .

[catch9966]

it has to do with how the DEI interface is setup. When DEI programmed the XL202 interface they set up trunk on aux2 instead of just aux. go figure...

[averatec6]

wen u got the other benz key for unlockin and locking,how can u do ti also on the remote starter?

do u gotta install someting in the car or not?

[catch9966]

the remote starter module gets installed and provides the ability to remote start using the standard mercedes key. (you push the panic button to start and stop the engine). The mercedes remote will work from up to 150 feet away. You also have the option of adding the aftermarket remote control and antenna which will alow you to lock, unlock, pop trunk, and start/stop the engine from up to 2500 feet away.
