remote start for X5

I had an aftermarket remote start installed on my X5, and for some reason it works sometimes, and sometimes it doesn't. nothing wrong with the remote start itself, as we tried it on another vehicle and it works fine. any words of wisdom from anyone?

no words of wisdom but I have been told that BMW's and remote starts don't play well together. Was warned by the dealer pretty strongly against them.

That part could be coded out where you don't need to press on the brake pedal to start the car. If you code that out then the remote start could possibly work more effectively.

just an idea.
