is there any way to increase the time you have between remotely unlocking the car and starting it?. it seems about 30 secs is all you get, then you have to lock & unlock again. 99 impreza standard sigma alarm

 

Not that im aware off. Although you dont have to lock and unlock again. Blip the remote once with ignition on then turn key to crank position

 

Count yourself lucky, I get 10 seconds with mine - standard alarm that came with the car.

 

Mine use to be the same, but after I sent my car in to have the rust spot removed from the rear wheel arch it has never worked again. A bit annoyed, but will either have to check it out myself or take it in. Plus I would like to remove the old Nokia hands-free kit that is in the car under the dash on the passenger side.

 

So, rust isn't always bad for the car...?

 

You could say that. I'd rather keep the rust and a working alarm.
