I keep my car outside, so it gets pretty hot, so I am thinking to get a remote start for my 15 e-coupe so it can be started from an iPhone, I don't have a direct view of the car, so it needs to be start from a cell phone. Did anyone install one, how much was it, and does it work reliably? Thanks.

So you want to start your car remotely when you can't see it? It must be very safe where you live, over here in Sydney, if you did that you would come out to an empty space. Good luck with that.

Several MB owners have this installed - but I've no direct experience.

haha! although i dont disagree with the Sydney part, probably not all places in Sydney are like that.

anyways, with the remote start, i think the car starts but would stay locked until you open it for safety purposes.

goodluck and hope you find a fix.

Wow, it looks like $800 for equipment, and it does not list 2015 e400 coupe in the list. Kinda pricy, I was hoping for something under $500. Anyways, had remote start in 2 automobiles, and never had problems with safety, car turns off as soon as you put your foot on the break to switch into drive(i.e. unless you have a key inside), I live in NYC, not exactly the safest area in US.
