Omg I have been annoyingly dealing with this same stupid issue since 2011. WHY DON'T MY HEATED SEATS WARM UP WHEN I START REMOTE START THE CAR!!! I had dealer tell me it'll work once it's on "Auto" NOPE. Sorry for the caps, this has been frustrating me for nearly a decade. I might take another look into this and get back to you. Please post a solution if you come across one as well
