GM Autostart SHORT run time

[Ct Pirate]

Does anyone know if there is a mod or setting to change the run time of the auto start from 10 min to something more real world? I'm looking to at least double it.

Would like for there to be an answer also but sadly I do not think so.

Nope. It is what it is...

IIRC, some aftermarket systems run for 20 minutes. I think that may be your only choice.

Hit it 2x youll get 20 min

per owners manual...

to remote start:
(press lock & then hold start button for 4 seconds)
*during the 1st 10 minutes of running,
repeat steps to extend 10 min longer.

maximum of 2 remote starts cycles allowed

On the nnbs you can get the BCM flashed to extended the remote start run time

Didnt know that, cool

Good to know, thanks.

But then you have to stick key in and start it regularly, only 2x remotely

REALLY? Can the Stealer do it?

Flash the BCM? I was referring to the 07-14 models.

If ct stands for Connecticut then you’re south...of me at least! 20 minutes is way more than enough time to warm these things up in my experience but I suppose it would be nice to set it to however long we wanted.

I’m guessing there is liability associated with it. Like knowing that people will certainly start it in their garage and forget about it etc.

Yeah after trying it out this morning it seems really good. I just got out of a Audi Q7 for 5 years and the heat SUCKED! I used to have to get 2 shots of 23 min of running time to even warm the car I'm glad to be back in a Yukon for sure!

Wow you need longer than 20 min. I live an hour north of Toronto Canada and I don't even let my suburban warm up a full 10 min.
its been about -2F to -3F (-19C) most morning last week and 5 mins was long enough that I could hop in turn on the heated seat and steering wheel and drive to work.
Most days I don't even wear my winter jacket in the car cause the seat is warm enough with the heated seats set on the middle temp.

My heated seats come on depending what my clinate control was left on last in my 13
