I'm assuming so. You don't need the key fob once it's running. There's a beep when the fob leaves the vicinity of the car. But it will still drive.

Ya I was surprised when I did an experiment, and car just kept going without the key. I was hoping that this module would disallow it, at least during the remote start and until door gets unlocked (via key fob, not key) for the first time.

I just tested this with the remote start. I started the car remotely and then unlocked the door. I left the key outside of the car, and as soon as I shifted it out of park it cut off.

That's a nice feature. I'm guessing that is a OEM feature on the 7AT. No such luck in the MT version though. Once the car is started you can drive it away with or without the fob. But if you turn it off you won't be able to start it up again without the fob.

Nah, it’s not an OEM thing. In 7at, once engine starts, you can drive off without the key. The cutoff is a feature of this remote start.
