As the title suggests, this is typically how I park at home. I have homelink set to auto open @ 70 feet and it works when it wants to. Closer distances seem to never work. Auto close has never worked and manually pressing the icon works when it wants to. Currently neither seem to be working. I'm on v9.
Instead I tried setting the open distance to 10 feet and drive into the garage and back out of it and auto open and close work perfectly (sample size: 1.5 days). I called Tesla support, explained this observation, and they confirmed my theory that homelink on their cars was designed for this type of parking. Mainly because the transmitter is in the front bumper.
That being said, are there owners out there that prefer to back into their garage and use homelink? If so what has your user experience been with it? Any tips/tricks to make it more reliable?
Thanks
