So I'm about to pull the trigger and order my Homelink upgrade. I've got a few questions about auto open/close specific to my situation that I want to hopefully understand better so I know what I'm getting into. Worst case I don't mind just using the homelink manually if need be.
1) I have to back into my garage in the evening (for the cord to reach). I also may sometimes back in too far and need to move forward again a few inches. Will this mess up my next auto open/close? I've read in other threads that people have problems when they move their car back after initially pulling into their garage.
2) I live on a cul-de-sac and after driving up the street (and the door auto-closing), I have to make a couple turns and end up driving BEHIND my house to drive out of my neighborhood. It's not super-close to the house, but close enough that I think my factory Genie remote would open the door if I stuck it out the window. Should I have any concern that Homelink will try to auto-open my door thinking I turned around and went home?
3) How far away do you need to be to have the door auto-close? I ask because every weekend when I wash the car (600+ miles a week driving on the I-15!) I pull out into the street and turn the car around and pull forward into my driveway. Is it going to try to auto close/auto open in that scenario?
Thanks for the info!
