Can anyone explain no remote start from Acuralink?
So the 2019 RDX now has remote start/stop from the acuralink app; but the 2019 MDX does not? Very frustrating from a "premium" brand when chevy, ford, and dodge have this standard.

MDX was designed 5 years ago. RDX is brand new. I’d hope the RDX had some newer features, lol.
And yet the MDX has a 2-way key fob that allows remote start and even provides confirmation the vehicle executed the command. RDX has none of this.

Ive seen the remote start display via Acura Link and it's pretty slow to get the car started. Though the feature of unlocking/locking your car with a app is helpful.

Point is the 2019 Mdx released after 2019 RDX. Already had the app door lock and unlock commands. I assume that the remote start from app is only a matter of opening up the software to allow this but they didn't for 2019 Mdx.
Why would someone want remote start from an app? When it is negative 20 out and you work in a large building so your car is not close enough to use fob.

Are you saying that you added the option to start it via AcuraLink app for the MDX? or do you have the RDX instead of the MDX?

They say that the remote start on the MDX has a range of 300ft

Acura link cost worth it?
does everyone who has the AcuraLink Connect subscription think it’s worth the cost of roughly $15 a month?

I honestly don’t think AcuraLink is worth the money. I have a 2019 RDX right now and the app is so laggy. It’ll take 4-5 tries before my engine would even start. You can extend it to extra 10 mins and that’s it. I really wish they would come with the actual key fob with remote starts. I mean, you can still buy it off of Acura, but it’ll be $300 extra. Plus I feel like they’re trying to make money out of you after your free trials are over.
