TLX Homelink Version?
Could someone confirm that the TLX has HomeLink version 4.0? I plan to purchase a new Chamberlain garage door that requires version 4. I called HomeLink support, they do not have the TLX listed and could not confirm that it would work. The opener is LW5000ev. If it does not work, an option would be to purchase a repeater through Chamberlain.

Thanks, apparently homelink released security 2.0 in 2011 and you need Homelink 4 for this feature. The newer Chamberlain garage door openers require this feature to work or you need to purchase a separate receiver. Apparently some manufactures are still using an older version of Homelink in new cars. The Homelink representative specifically said some new BMWs use older versions of Homelink. I purchased the openers today, I'll provide an update if it works when installed.

I don't know what version of Homelink the TLX has, but I can confirm that it works with the Craftsman Assurellink garage door openers. These are made by Chamberlain and I had a very difficult time getting them to work with my CTS ( I had to get the repeater and use tech support and it was still an adventure). When I programmed my TLX it only took about 2 minutes to do both garage doors. I may look around and see if there is a way to determine what version it is.

You would think it would be easy to tell but Homelink does nor even yet list a TLX on their site. In talking with their tech, the location of the "home" icon and the actual buttons indicate versions. Home icon to the left indicates version 3 or 4 and I think he stated version 5 has actual arrows. Version 4 is required for the new security 2.0 in the opener.

I can confirm that the HomeLink Version in the TLX is 4.0 or better. If you purchase a new garage door opener requiring the new security 2.0 found in HomeLink 4.0, it will work! Vehicles with earlier versions of HomeLink require a repeater as discussed above.
