This may pose a little difficult as Tech Services may not talk with me because I am not a GM service center. The next problem is, if they issue a VCI to me my research states that there could be a time limit on how long the download is available on TIS2WEB. There is potential $50.00 charge for the VCI, which I am willing to pay for. The problem is I need access to a MDI.

This is the one of the things that irritate me. I took the van to a different dealer last week and explained my situation. The service rep said that they would look into it. Well no surprise they told me that it could not be done as the vehicle was not equipped with the parts. The SR said that there was no receiver in the van. BS, I told the SR that I know for a fact that the receiver was in the van and it just needed to be programmed. They just blew me off and said if they could do it they would, but they can't because there are no parts available. When I looked at the print out from the tech it stated that the VIN for this vehicle does not include RKE. Again, the dealer DID NOT connect the MDI to check, they DID NOT call Tech Services to see about a VCI, they just looked up the VIN. Typical lazyness.

People keep asking me why not just go aftermarket and you can get remote start? Well, first, I just want RKE I do not need all the bells and whistles. Second, I do not like the idea of some "professional" moron hacking up my wiring harness when the vehicle is capable of doing what I need. Third, I did look into aftermarket and if I went that route I WOULD want all the bells and whistles at that point. Problem is that "professional" moron and the immobilizer bypass, for the system I was looking at, is not available for a 2015 Express as of yet.

Who is this GM customer service person that hangs around here that you speak of? I would like to talk to them.

If I thought I'd be happy with aftermarket I'd have bought it the first time it was brought up. I know I won't be, just my nature.

So if anyone has any real information as to adding the FACTORY features I'd be happy to learn it. Until I have time to ask a few dealerships I'll be watching this thread, thank you.
