    I bought my Sequoia last month and after remote-starting my car, after a very short time it shuts off. Great for saving fuel, sure, but that won't fully warm up my car. With the depths of winter coming, I'd like to figure this out -- any suggestions would be appreciated -- thanks.

    The hybrids really have a mind of their own it seems. They say after long highway drives you should let the motor idle for a little bit to let the turbos cool and what not. But any time I get done driving on the highway or stop for gas and pull up to the pump the motor just stops and in hybrid mode.

    @easleycrawler Mmmm ... not exactly my experience. It seems to go dormant after just a few minutes. Perhaps for starters I should time it to be sure.

    Toyota remote starters do kinda suck, shut off after 10 mins or as soon as you open the door. If you have the app and subscription, you can start it from you phone and it has a timer as soon as you start it.
