A local body shop owner dropped by Extreme Audio in search of a late holiday present for herself. She wanted to add a remote car starter to her 2015 Audi Q7 SUV. We’ve worked on the Q7 before and know that the Python 4816P 1-button, two-way remote starter is the perfect solution for this vehicle.
The Python system provides up to 1 mile of range from the remote controls. To increase this, we added a SmartStart telematics system to give her effectively unlimited range. SmartStart uses a cellular-based communication device that connects to the Python starter to receive commands from the client’s smartphone. She can send lock, unlock and remote start commands from anywhere she has data access.
While we had the Audi in the shop, we installed a set of WeatherTech FloorLiners to keep the carpet looking clean and new. We also installed a set of WeatherTech window deflectors so she can vent her windows without needing to worry about rain getting into the vehicle.
The client was very happy with her purchase and anxious to try out the starter.
If you are in the market for accessories for your car, truck or SUV, drop by Extreme Audio in Mechanicsville or Midlothian, or contact us by e-mail using our website.

Hello there,
I previously had you guys install a remote starter on one of my cars several years ago and it still works great
Looking to see if you will be able to install on 2012 Audi Q 7
Thanks
Mike Bartells says
We definitely could. There’s a few factors on that vehicle we’d need to discuss though. Give Mike a call at 804-302-4488 when you have a chance. Thanks!

Hello. I’ve been trying to find a shop or solution to install remote start on my 2015 Q7 TFSI and everyone keeps telling me it’s not possible because there’s no control module for it. Your video here proves that is incorrect. I’m not in VA, but could you possibly tell me what I’m missing?
It’s cold here in Michigan and a remote start would be a life saver. Thanks!
Mike Bartells says
It’s a bit of a complicated scenario. What part of Michigan are you located? Maybe I can refer you to someone capable of doing it.
