Any rumors out there when remote start capabilities might be added to a 2017 Q7? I saw that Ford just introduced Smartlink, which allows this and other functions on 2010 and later models.

Remote start and an AC outlet are the two thing that I miss not having on my Q7 Prestige

 

I only know that you can install it if you want but it can be very difficult, plus you need to find someone who is really expert on this. I really would not recommend it!

 

Bought a 2017 Q7 and they don't offer remote start��.

 

I have a 2018 that is in route now from the factory, and it has the remote start. My 2016 A6 didn't have that option.

Did car arrive with remote start as expected?

 

No, it did not. Not happy as I was told that it was a factory installed feature. Other than that, the 2018 Q7 is a dream to drive. Now looking at the Q8. LOL
