Stop Start...

Worked a treat on my 2016 life today, just noticed it's on the wife's Skoda Octavia also, we have only had it 3 years

Strange that. I thought every car with Stop start had the switch to disable it. We have a few VW and Skoda pool cars at work and they all have it. My van was new in Feb this year so I wonder if they've now removed it from the later vans for this year or whether it's on later vans with DSG, though someone else with a 2017 DSG van says they have it. I really don't know but am certainly glad I can disable it on mine as it'd do my head in if i couldn't!

Forgot to turn mine off on the way home from work tonight, pulled up at some lights and the stop start kicked in, with my clutch depressed I pressed the button and hey presto the engine started and stop start was disabled for the rest of my journey. Is this common knowledge and does this work with a DSG model.

Reading this I'm really happy mine doesn't have BMT!!
We are sold every thing we don't want anymore!!

You should be able to permanently change the stop start settings with VCDS.

On my VW car there is a VCDS coding which reverses the switch action so that it is always off unless you switch it on. ie you may decide to switch it on stuck in a long traffic jam...

You can also set it to remember the last setting. I have my car set to the reverse action and its a lot better.

Are there any VCDS coding gurus that have the coding for a Caddy?
