    The dealer just replaced the starter and said it was "bad" I knew that wasn't the issue, the starter works fine with the key directly, and works with remote start, the engine just dies on remote start almost like somehow you did the remote start and pressed the start button again right after the engine started to cancel it...

    they wouldn't look at anything else until the starter was changed... which of course costs me money... I've never had the GM dealer fix a problem on the first try and that always makes me mad because I tell them it's definatly not something then they come back and say lets try that first have a $100 deductable on my extended warrenty so the more they "try" the more I have to pay ugh

    edit:
    starting to think it is the key fob.... took the fob apart and shorted the buttons manually and the car started up fine
