After 3 days with the car, two main issues have stuck out to me. The first, which is vital, is that I've found that the Homelink transmitter is somehow not working for opening my garage gate from the outside. When driving out of the garage from the inside, it works. My theory is that because the receiver is inside the garage, it is much closer to the car's Homelink transmitter when I'm inside the garage trying to leave, vs. when I'm outside the garage trying to come back in.
This is unfortunately a huge issue for me because it essentially makes Homelink useless for returning back home. The receiver isn't even that far, maybe 10-15 feet.
On top of this, I've found that my manual garage remote opener also rarely works from inside the car. I suspect that this is due to the insulated glass option that I have specced. If I can't use Homelink AND I have to stick my arm out with a garage opener every time I come home, that's gonna really suck.
Is there anything I can do about this?
The second issue is that the PCM is not remembering that I want the Electric Sport Sound on when I drive. It always defaults to off. I literally tested turning off the car with the power button, then turning it back on with the power button, and the Electric Sport Sound had reverted to off (its default value in Normal drive mode). Isn't this setting supposed to be stored with my driver profile, which I can confirm is successfully loaded every time I get in the car? I use Comfort Access, if it matters.
