What color is the program button on your door opener?

If it's a round yellow button, it uses the newer SECURITY+2.0 coding. It came out around 2011.

The Homelink system in the Z4 uses the older 315 MHz security system. And BMW didn't update the system at all, so I have the same issue with my 2016 Z4.

The solution is a Homelink Repeater. It's a unit you plug in your garage. You program the Z4 to it and the Repeater to your opener. Bit of a nuisance, but it works.
