The S80 is not idiot proof. Perhaps Volvo figured if the S80 is not garaged there is no reason to program the Homelink. Therefore no security issue.SlowLane wrote: 25 Feb 2020, 13:37 Funny though, the Homelink in my S80 works fine without needing the key, so it seems that Volvo vacillated on the security issue. Doesn't matter. The S80 lives in the garage. The 850 is out in the elements.
