really?
when you remote start and set temperate on your app, the climate doesn't start in auto? its just full blast? i am taking about this auto climate light.. should always start on auto no? so it doesnt damage your engine

Never paid attention but I think it is in Auto. How would it damage the engine?

auto suppose wait for engine to warm up before starting either cooling or warming the car. Auto will not try to blast hot hair/cold air until engine is ready which takes few minutes
my car used to always start at 'auto' climiate on remote start, .but some reason it stopped it..

What you are describing is for comfort only. IE the car won't blow ice cold air on you in the winter until it is warmer than ambient. Engine wear has nothing to do with this.

Fortunately, when it is hot here (usually), my AC starts working right away. There is, of course, a safety that keeps the compressor off until the engine has reached a certain RPM, but this takes less than a second, and it is there whether it is on auto (always is) or manual.

In winter, many cars will not turn on the blower until the water temperature is high enough to make some heat in the cabin. Blowing cold air would be uncomfortable. I summer, from the sun load the cabin may be very hot so the fan will start to ventilate. Then the AC will start to cool.
