The 2016 BMW X1 does not come with remote start as a standard feature, but it can be added as an option. If your key fob isn't functioning, it's likely because the battery is dead. Key fobs typically use CR2032 batteries, which are small, coin-shaped, and generally cost around $5 each. You can buy them where regular batteries are sold. To replace the battery, you'll need to open the back cover of the fob. Depending on the fob, you might be able to slide the cover off by pulling it down, or you may need to remove a couple of small screws. A small screwdriver will make this task easier.
