Hey Veloster turbo fam. Had a questions about bluelink. I saw that the price was $100 a year and I tried it out on one of my old android phones and I think it is pretty neat. Does anyone use it regularly and think it is worth it? I have a windows phone and was thinking about getting a nexus 4 so I could take advantage of it. Still have about 3 months with it free before I get charged.

The only thing I used was remote start, and it didn't work all the time. I can get a remote start installed for $275, so that's what I will be doing.

Only reason I would use it for would be the remote start and that feature was disabled for me so it was of zero use to me. I would have continued with the service for that feature alone if it were available.

I've used the navigation a few times and like it enough to keep it up. I wish I could fix the maintenance reminders though - it's about 2000 miles off because of a few early oil changes.

Other than that I really do like bluelink overall.

So far, I've not seen much use for it. The remote start is fun the first 2 times, but then it gets a shoulder shrug. As stated above it's more cost effective to have a remote start system installed. It would also be much more reliable. I've had the remote start feature work 4 of the 7 times I've attempted to use it. On those occasions where it does work, it still takes several minutes to actually start up. As far as using the service for navigation, no thanks. I've got Google Maps for free.

Yeah I can see that. If the app started the car up quickly and consistently I'd be with ya.
