Understanding that for this to have a chance of being available full nav and a com box must be fitted. I saw on a film once a person speaking to bmw and requesting a remote start.

We can open our cars from a phone and I believe that bmw will (once successfully through authentication of course) open it too, but is the remote start to get you home if for example you have lost your keys a genuine and perhaps unpublished service capability.

That is good to know. The Remote iPhone app will lock the car (without the alarm being armed) but won't unlock. Just gives you the phone number to BMW Assist.
