How are your 03 E320/500 integrated garage door openers working?

Mine sucks. My wife's 03 C320's works great! But the E has to be pressed repeatedly to work, and is finnicky, only works if car is angled in driveway, front end forward.

Anyone else?

'Works just the same as my C320 did, same range, opens from about 60 feet away just like the old car. Once I had a problem with the antenna inside the garage, so if you have 2 doors you might check the opener antenna. If it's the same door for the C and E, it must be the car transmitter. I'd also try a reset and reprogram once to see if it helps.

Mine works perfectly. I have one of those rolling codes so it was a pain to program, but worked great first time & every time.

I can get it to work, rolling codes and all, but I have to angle it *just* right and be in juussssttt the right spot on the driveway. Then I have to push and hold it several times until it finally works. Sighhh.

As for the game, I'll be cheering on our newest Heisman winner from home. Nothing against Florida, but I heard OJ was out there last week and I'm not a big fan of his. The Browns live in my town.

Got to show my support for the victims. Besides, I can't get off work to fly out for the game, lol!

Joe....I had a hard time getting mine programmed but it works ok now. Do have to hold the button for a couple of seconds.

Did you try one of the other buttons on the home link? I suppose it is possible that the link to the button you have been using is faulty.

Happy New Year!!
