DS4+ does it require VSM550 to start from my phone/iwatch or does it come included? Also have you installed this in a 2014 Honda Odyssey? Does the remote start still shut off once you open the door.
I have the non smart "H" key and had the dealership install the DS4 remote start. I bought the alarm module separate, the dealership said I cannot have remote start and alarm at the same time. I went to a local car audio shop and they said there was another module that I needed to purchase to have alarm and remote start, but I cannot figure out wth they are talking about. Any idea?
On a 2017 Toyota Sienna with regular key, would I still be able to open sliding doors or hatch with oem/factory remote, while engine has been remote started? Or would the oem/factory remote be disabled while engine running?
Michael Nguyen The way to determine if the key fob will stay active is to start your vehicle with the key and try all buttons on the fob. If they work 👍if not 😢
Do I need a DS4 or a DS4+ for a 2017 Volkswagen Jetta SE push start? Also, to turn on the car with a smartphone, what else will I need besides the DS4?
Jax Can if you are using your factory key fob then yes. You are limited to its original distance. How ever you should be able to pair via Bluetooth and get up to 100 feet of range. It will vary based being inside and how interference is in your area. If you would more range you can add a remote or viper smart start.
@@andrewenriquez3138 i want the ds4 as a security system and also the OEM remote start range is limited ... if i add a Smart Start module to the Ds4 i can control it over internet
Hi, idk if you’ve already purchased this or not but I wanted to share a story. I talked to someone once who had two 2017 Honda Civics. She had Best Buy install/hardwire a system like this and both cars became expensive paperweights. Last I talked to her, she was fighting with upper mgt with Best Buy to get them to replace the vehicles. I don’t have any more specifics, and I apologize about that but be careful. Best of luck to you however your decision has or turns out to be.
Unfortunately if you want to pair your phone to the unit the shop you had install it will need to help you with it. The pair option is in the dealer app.
What is the difference between the DS4 and a DS4 plus there is nothing on TH-cam if you would make one and explain all the add-ons that can be put on One versus the other you guys would be selling a lot more
@@Ezduztube You can use the DS4 but the install will be analog and not digital. It is not recommend to do remote start on a manual transmission and labor will be extensive. To get complete phone control you can add a Viper Smart Start module,
The smart start is an add on for cellular connection to arm/disarm/start the vehicle. The ds4 is a remote start unit that can be upgraded to add security or smart start as well. It can be controlled via a cell phone, but it over bluetooth so the range is much more limited.
I just had Best Buy install a DS4+ on my 2017 Rav 4. The tech said he’s never been able to get Bluetooth to work. He said there’s nothing in the manual about it. The Smart Start app tells you exactly how to do it- but I’m not sure he left the valet switch accessible. Do you know where I’d find it? And do you know for sure that all DS4+ systems have Bluetooth? He made it sound like no ones ever made it work- but TH-cam says differently. :)
Frank Verderosa Generally the valet switch is some where under the drivers side dash. It is a small black button attached to a grey and grey/black wire. We have not had an issues with getting the phone programmed. I would recommend checking out the snake pit ( vipers TH-cam channel) it is possible they will have a video on how to do it there.
So what would you put on my vehicle I have a 1997 k1500 and I do not have the key fob main reason why I want to get a remote start and security system.
Your vehicle doesn't need a digital bypass module, so I would either go with the Viper 5305v or if you would a top of the line unit I would recommend the Viper 5706v.
This thing is trash. I got the Clifford DS4 system installed on my truck. It continually loses programming and I have to take my truck back to get it reprogrammed. Out of nowhere my remotes stop working and it will not disarm itself. Last time I had this happen I had to tow the truck to the shop. Called Directed and they said it's not something they are aware of.
@@stereoking7778 2001 tundra. It's the weirdest thing, when I use the app on my phone to lock my truck it will send a signal to the remote saying it's locked, but the actual remote doesn't do anything.
I would try having them swap out the antenna cable. If I remember correctly there are separate wires for transmit and receive. If that doesn't work try swapping out the antenna itself. They will have to reprogram the remote because the it programs directly to the antenna.

How does the 2 way give more range when the ds4 plus comes with a antenna
Is this also a kill switch? So no one remote start it with a stolen Frequency?
hi i Just bought a used car 2017 prius and it had a DS4 can i connect with the app and work fine or what do i need exactly ?
I already have a factory remote start do I need the ds4 or just the upgrade of I want security?
hello bro a question i have the viper 4x05 module installed i want to use the viper connect do you think i have to buy the viper ds4 oh no?

If I bought the DS4VB system and upgrade to the remote with the lock and unlock buttons will that work with the factory system?
Will it work for a G37 2012 Infinti?? I would love this !!!

Will it work on a Honda 2011 crv exl On key only has lock unlock and panic button

Such a shame you never got a response I want to know what the difference is between a DS4 and a DS4 plus myself
@@CarlosDelaoGunEngraver he says it right in the beginning
Just had ds4vb installed and distance is only about 25 feet to start. Is this normal?

How does being a 2 way remote give you more range
Will this remote start work on a 2012 Acura TL that already has Keyless Entry/Puhbutton Start?
Yes sir it sure will.
What unit do i need for a 2019 Honda Pilot , DS4 or DS4+ , my car already has oem remote start... will still work?
Why would you get remote start if you already have it?

I have the ds4+ but nobody shows you how to put the unit in Bluetooth mode to pair the phone. Everybody jumps that step. Can you tell me

He literally says it in the first 20 seconds.
How much to get this install
Will this work on a 2003 Chrysler PT cruiser? Do i need additional parts?
Yes the ds4+ would be a great choice. You would need the remote kit of your choice.
I got a 98 accord, I has viper 5706v, can I add smart start to it
You sure can.
HONDA CRV 2007 EX L?
Hello! Would the Ds4 work on a 2018 Mustang?🚙 Thanks!
Viper doesnt show a solution for the Mustang yet.
I see. What Viper alarm would you recommend with 2 way color Lcd remote and able to use Viper app on IPhone? Thanks!
@@Ezduztube You can use the DS4 but the install will be analog and not digital. It is not recommend to do remote start on a manual transmission and labor will be extensive. To get complete phone control you can add a Viper Smart Start module,
I see! Thanks!
I was thinking of getting the Viper 5906v. Hd remote. Do you think this is a good choice?🚙 Thanks!
Will the ds4 work with my viper 5906 remote?
It would be a replacement for the 5906.
Can this be installed on an Audi and a BMW? Thanks in advance.
Probably not. I would look at products from flashlogic for many European cars.
Whats the difference between the viper smart start and the ds4v
The smart start is an add on for cellular connection to arm/disarm/start the vehicle. The ds4 is a remote start unit that can be upgraded to add security or smart start as well. It can be controlled via a cell phone, but it over bluetooth so the range is much more limited.
I already have the viper 5906 remote start so u would recommend

stereo king oregon thanks!! Gonna check that out now. And thanks for posting your videos. Wish I lived out there!
Can you add the glass sensor to the DS4?
Yes sir, you can!
Will this work on a 04-08 f150
Yed sir
When you add the security to that does it beep while locking and unlocking your vechicle?
Yes sir it does. But can program it for silent arm and disarm.
and also can it beep with the OEM key or you have to get seperate remote?
You can just stick with the oem remote if you like. Do remember your range will be limited.
With a ds4 does it come with a remote?
They do not come with remotes. There are three options sold separately.
So what would you put on my vehicle I have a 1997 k1500 and I do not have the key fob main reason why I want to get a remote start and security system.
Your vehicle doesn't need a digital bypass module, so I would either go with the Viper 5305v or if you would a top of the line unit I would recommend the Viper 5706v.
stereo king oregon what about the 3305v? Will that work?
The 3305v doesn't have remote start.
What module do i need to purchase to get the gps remote start from my smartphone. I already have the viper 7146 installed
The viper vsm550 smart start module.

The ds4 will work but there is not a t harness available for that vehicle.
