Could you please tell me how you know your key goes to sleep? My test (with the key left very near the car for 30 minutes) didn’t seem to work. I keep my keys in a faraday box. Would love to know that they do work (I wonder why Volvo are so secretive!)
Thanks

Hmm, I wonder if the key has to be outside of the car's range AND stationary for the defined time before it deactivates? If that's the case it makes it hard to test...
Volvo are probably secretive because about the defined time because it it is a security vulnerability - the time period prior to deactivation provides a 'window of opportunity' for attackers to still use the really attack.
