no not the electronic keys .. only when the key is removed with the engine off . They did build in some safety software :-)

It's an RF fob, rather than a true key. The actual steering lock must be electronically operated?

To allow my wife to collect mail from our roadside mailbox when we arrive home, I often drive my V60 up our driveway without the key inserted. Seems to drive and steer OK.

I remove mine before I set off.
Just press back on the left stalk and the message will go away.

As for that stalling point. I've also done that.
I pressed the clutch and the care started it's self.

It has the stop start crap but is not keyless start/entry.
