Welcome to forum

Don't believe Dealers will set to remote close or their kit won't ( Health and Safety ??) but Indies with the correct diagnosis gear apparently can

or by a third party module such as the Reinhold which also means you don't have to keep your thumb on the button for the whole ten seconds, just press it three times.

pretty much covered above.

Any indy with an autologic can program it.. takes minutes.. however if they charge say £50 for that priveledge then imo i would pay an extra £50 and get the Reinhold.. its sooo much better.
