Stupid feature, I hate it. I shut it off if I can remember to do it. But I've learned that if you only keep a moderate pressure on the brake pedal at a stop, it won't engage. (Toyota Highlander)

Hate the auto-stop feature!
 

We have a Subaru and it has that feature. Wish that I could permanently shut it off but instead, I have to cut it off each time I start the engine. I understand why they put it on, in order to save gas, but I figured it up one day that it saved me about a half of a gallon per year. That’s all well and good but it will cost a whole lot more to replace the starter when it wears out then all the gas that it saved. Not a helpful or appreciated feature!

Even yugo can last 5 years. :boom: OK maybe I over exaggerated that one….:1rotfl:

Hate it!
 

Had dynamic fuel management (auto stop/start) on my 2019 Sierra Denali and it was a joke! Recently purchased a new vehicle and in the selection process I focused on only vehicles that don’t have it.

I have found it to work flawlessly in the three cars (a Mercedes a Toyota and a Hyundai). I have seen no reason to disable it.

Bypassed mine with a tazer mini. Don't even have to push the button now.

Don't cry when you have to replace your starter prematurely then.

Linkt to that happening please.

Not old enough t yet only starts stop few hundred times. See what happens after few thousands times. Not to mention electronic’s .

Hate it, I turn it off every time I drive. I can get a device to permanently disable it but I’ll ask the dealer to do it on next maintenance visit.
My car at least is smart enough not to turn this off if the a/c is running.

The cable for my Buick Envista is located under the hood right in the front. Took me less than 5 minutes to lift hood, unplug existing cable, then plug the new cable in both ends.

Every vehicle is not that easy. Watch this video:

My 2015 and 2018 F150's had the autostart/stop feature and I would always turn it off. My 2021 F150 was built during the microchip shortage so in order to get the truck built I had to pay $50 to delete this module. Seems strange to pay for a module that wasn't installed but I was told it was an energy credit for the automakers. It was worth the $50.

I personally don't like , friends car has it very disconcering .
