Engine Remote Start
Just to confirm, if my Volvo App does not have the remote start / remote climate (mild-hybrid AAOS car), no setting changed via Orbit will enable this?

I saw on this thread, post #28 that it would not work but it's been a few years.
Say I switch 045 to Remote Engine Start Precond from smartphone app, would this allow the app to start the engine and climate?

I'm in Austria where it's apparently illegal despite every other car manufacturer allowing it.

The Settings you change via Orbit are only lokal... 
Your App is Volvo Cloud. Changes in Orbit will not enable the button in the app.

Damn, that's what I figured. 
So there's no way of getting remote start/climate to work?
Talked to the dealer and they also said they can't do it as it's not supported by Volvo here.

Figured it was worth a try with Orbit but at least knowing it won't work will save me the 325$ for it :/

Thanks for verifying though!

You can start the car by Key! But atm the climate won‘t start until i‘m inside and confirmed the Engine Start.

Edit: Climate work but shows „Off“ in the middle screen. But not as powerful as completly started.
Also the hatch by foot work for me..
