my procedure:
1. open garage door
2. insert key and turn to on, until oil check is done (or chime stops, whichever occurs first)
3. start engine
4. pull out of garage
5. drive away hoping the garage door closed
6. drive to the highway onramp, 1.2 miles from the house
7. resist the urge to have fun for another 4 or 5 miles
8. usually fail

I think item #6 is the problem causing item #8 to fail..
You need to move, you live too close to the on ramp...lol

#5 is funny! I would change that one. Once or twice I hit the remote twice, leaving the garage open all day, facing the street, inviting anyone to rob me. Now I wait until it's fully closed before pulling away. So I guess I do Idle for 1 Minute or so.
