Welcome to the Forum

Initially the remote start feature was fitted as an option on selected models (G20 was one of them) from around 2014/2015 as far as I am aware it wasn't until 2019/2020 models that it became a standard feature.

You obviously need the remote start option plus the remote you can check if your BMW has a remote start. On your touchscreen, you should have an option that reads “iDrive.”  From there, all you have to do is scroll over to ‘remote start engine’ and see if it is available or not. If so, then yes, you can enjoy a remote start from your key fob or directly from the app. 

If you don't have the option I have read about Aftermarket systems that can be fitted but have never seen one in action.

Hope this helps
