Keyless Entry Universal remote
I got my Xl-7 used, and it didn't come with a keless entry keychain. Normally, I wouldn't mind so much, it's just that if you open the doors with the actual key, it sets off the car alarm if you don't turn the ignition on whithin a few seconds. Needless to say, this can get annoying.
Three questions:
1) Suzuki is telling me that I have to buy their fob (75 bucks) and get it programmed by their techs (80 bucks). Now, i know that's completely false, because there is on-board programming on the 08 Xl-7, nd the instruction manual is pretty clear about that. However, do I need to buy a suzuki model fob, or can I use any remote entry key (they all work the same way).
2) In the meantime, is there a way to disable the car alarm temporarily?
3) How can i find out if my model has remote start as well as remote keyless entry?
Thanks.
