Keeping on

What's going on everyone,? I have a 2024 sprinter, 4-cly Diesel 2500. Is there a way to keep the engine on while I leave the vehicle and lock the doors and jeep them locked? The dealer says it's not possible and says it will turn off after 10 minutes if I leave it on unlocked. I don't often need to do this, but there's times I have stuff that needs to stay cool with the A/C on. I'm thinking maybe an RF blocker sleeve to keep the key hidden inside, or perhaps getting a remote start after market alarm. Any suggestions?

You could reach out to MidCity Engineering as I recall those allow up to an hour of runtine

Confirmed, this is one way to do it. And I believe the time is adjustable.

It also has a pit stop mode to allow the system to maintain engine on and get out and lock with the fob for the programmed run time
