Picky Autostart? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Is there any way to adjust the sensitivity of the auto start or anything? My range is fine but if I don't time the button pushing exactly it won't start...

I have to hit the lock button, pause..... then hold the start button
If I hit the lock button then hold the start button it won't start or if I wait too long to hit the start after I hit the lock button it won't start...

Maybe I'm being picky but from where I start my car I can't see or here it (through a wall)... I have tried this while standing about 20 feet from the car too... I have to have exact timing

My G6 was exactly the same. I just gave up and lived with it. I don't know if there is much you can do. Maybe it's a failsafe so you don't turn your car on accidently. Imagine if the button was more sensitive, your car would turn the car on without even wanting to and you'd be in the same problem but reverse.
