Idle Stop Disable

[Steve182022]

Great that you won't have to press the idle stop button every time.

You’ll still have to put it into individual mode. Same 1 button press. But definitely nice to have it part of that mode.

Porsche is the only brand of car I've owned that allows you to turn it off permanently so this is a welcome addition.
Driving my kids Civic Hatchback this week and I have to keep remembering to push the Auto Stop button off

Not sure about all BMW’s but my buddys 2018 M3 remembers the last setting for it. So he’s pressed it once and never again.

I had a BMW, and currently have a Porsche, that allow permanent disable.

From Edmunds article:

"For starters, the Integra's Technology package requires the A-Spec package. In addition to A-Spec equipment, it includes an adaptive suspension for improved ride and handling qualities. You also get an Individual driving mode that lets you customize the steering feel, engine response and suspension feel to your liking. But those are the only dynamic improvements to the car unless you count the adjustable engine and exhaust note enhancement system that pipes synthesized sound into the car through the stereo speakers. If you were hoping for Acura's Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system, you're out of luck."

So you're stuck pushing the stop start button unless you get the Tech Package?

19 MY and up have it where you have to press it every time you start up.

Sport mode should deactivate it.

Dare I hope there's no piped in "engine noise" in Sport mode?

Almost every car comes with it.

Almost every car comes with it.

Sad but true. Just need an "off" switch.

 

[RRP RSX-S]

Sad but true. Just need an "off" switch.

So everyone could complain about hitting another button every time they start up? Lol jk jk.

I blame the existence of this on people wanting a quiet ride but also wanting to hear the engine because they associate that with being fast. You can't do that without having either fake exhaust sound or somehow routing a sound tube into the cabin. Both suck.

Is the auto start/stop only on the automatic transmission models and not the manual?

 

[RRP RSX-S]

Good question. Not sure. My friends M3 manual still has auto start stop.
