Remote star run time


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if you can increase the 10 minute run time when using Automatic Start? Was try to see if there was a way I could make it run for 15 minutes before shutting down.

When you remote start the truck repeat the process again and that should give you 20 minutes.

I don't believe you can .... this is intended to prevent people from starting vehicle in a garage with the remote and it running long enough to fill the garage / house with carbon monoxide ...if you forget about it

if you repeat process during first run cycle it will reset the clock ... and run for the 10 min from there ....but will not run 20 min ..

example.. you start truck  it runs 3 min ... you re do  start process it will run and other 10 ...for a total of 13 min ....

I'm pretty sure it runs for 20 minutes. Well at least mine did last time I tried it. OP can try it and get back to us.

My '15 owners manual says you can get a max of 20 minutes.

That's good to know. In the winter time, I don't like when I can't get out the door fast enough and my engine shuts down before getting up to operating temperature . I remember reading it is not good for GDI engines.

So in other words, I can let it run for 8 minutes and then hold the engine start on my remote to get a total of 18 minutes?

What's your manual say?  In the GMT900s you can hit remote start twice, up to 10 minutes each time, before you must put the key in the ignition to reset that feature.

Fortunately, the OM can be downloaded electronically so it's not necessary to go out to the truck.

 

from the 2018 version:

 

"Extending Engine Run Time
The engine run time can be extended by 10 minutes, for a total of 20 minutes, if during the first 10 minutes Steps 1 and 2 are repeated while the engine is still running.

An extension can be requested 30 seconds after starting.
A maximum of two remote starts, or a single start with an extension, is allowed between ignition cycles.
The vehicle's ignition must be turned on and then back off to use remote start again."

If 10 min of warm-up does not meet your needs then I recommend investing in an interior car warmer. When I lived up north these were common.  You set it up on a timer to have it start an hour or two before your planned departure.  Your car's interior will be thawed.  Your car's engine doesn't require 10 min. to warm up.

My normal operating temperature is about 210 degrees. In the winter time, 10 minutes only gets it to 180 degrees. I don't like the engine shutting down before it hits the normal operating temp of 210 degrees.

The interior is perfectly fine after 10 minutes but sometimes I get caught up at work or home before I can make it to my vehicle in 10 minutes.

I'm just trying to keep the engine from shutting off after 10 minutes. Nothing more, nothing less.

yes  after the 8 minutes  you hit the lock button and hold the start button as you did the first time 

it will only do 2 cycles ( total of  your 18 minutes in your example... then you must  insert the key and turn it on)  ...to reset  start circuit

side note ...the climate control system will run the vehicle  in the last mode you left it before you shut key off ... soo if you are looking to defrost window in morning ....make sure  heater controls are in defroster mode before you turn  key off the night before .... also 

 if you accidentally left wipers on ... they wont  work during  starter mode ..as to not  break them if there is snow on windshield .. for us new Englanders

    • This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.  
    • 2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.  
    • Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
    • Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
