Issue with my new Ghibli. I do the remote autostart and the car does turn on, however, five seconds later it turns off and the message reads "Remote Autostart Disabled"

Anyone have an idea on what causes this? Car starts up properly and runs great when I start it from inside the vehicle.

Thanks to all

Sorry can't help, there is no autostart on the European Ghiblis ... Maserati dealer did not even know it exists.

Check fuel level. If too low, auto start is disabled.

Thanks, but it's at 3/4 of a tank at least.

I've only has it happen when the tank is under a 1/4 full. Maybe you have autostart disabled in the MTC menu.

Can you post a picture of your remote? My window sticker says the car has it, but I dont see the button.

The remote is actually a button on the key, with a semicircle and "x2" in the middle. You press it twice, the car horn beeps twice and the car is supposed to start. Mine does start, but only stays on a few seconds then turns off and the center message indicates Remote Start Disabled. It isn't disabled on the MTC

I used to get that message frequently if the alarm activated ... it was always a sign my car alarm went off after I locked the car.

The low gas or opening the trunk before trying the auto start function will disable too.

Once dealer fixed my alarm from going off randomly ... no more disabled autostart.
