Are you people clueless about how cars charge are you ? Clearly air con systems .. and heaters need an alternator running to keep your battery charging … do everyone a favour ; don’t breed !

Does this start stop lead to premiture cambelt braking .. as it does with timing chains..

This makes perfect sense. Thank you!

A little correction: when you say you cannot turn off Start Stop ever.... Audi A8 remembers last state of Start Stop. and does not turn on automatically if you turn it off . Even if you totally shut the car down. No Disrespect intended. Just wanted to share it. mine is 2017 A8L 4.0 Sport

Mine has this thing, I live in a city where I have lots of hills and sometimes I remain suspended with A(off), foot on clutch, on brake and ready to go when is free but the moment I remove the foot from brake and hit acceleration pedal, the car stops. Then I have to restart the car, trying again on the hill with traffic behind me and stops again, do it again and eventually it keep going. It is really annoying.

Whenever i have it OFF and i push brake and stop the vehicle, the Start and Stop sign shows up (like its about to stop the engine) and when i completely push the brake it increases rpm for 1 sec like it starts from stopped (i guess to avoid enabling the start and stop?).. Is that normal??

Is it message with low battery in the screen? Or only symbol?

Good information

My new audi a3 2023 gave me error audi a3 engine start system malfunction but after close and open again error gone Do u have any explain ?

You saved my time and money to find a solution to make the system default off (auto start stop), every time i tide i had to turn it off manually which is became habit

in Q3 35TFSI 2022 when you disable start-stop via the console button, each time the car makes a traffic stop the engine stops too! and then immediately re-starts again, so you get this irritating on and off and on action, Audi is this a joke?

Any update on how to stop this? I have an Audi a5 coupe and it also does this. I feel like people think that I have stalled the car lol.

The car always shuts its engine off even when the auto start / stop function is turned off ... A3 2022 ... I have to turn on the A/C every time in order for the system to stop working .. ??

I ride with my heater off with the car in comfort mode driving driving slow everywhere and it still don’t turn off and on at the light sometimes it shows a white A with a slash through it and sometimes it shows a green A with a slash through it

Hi! Sometimes, with the hazard light on, it auto stop but then when I want to move forward tells me to start manually the car again. Additionally I have to move from D to P. Can avoid this? S4 B8.5

You have to get the harness then pull out he tray .. it is online it isn't difficult or expensive to do. Everyone is doing it because this default feature is so incredibly dangerous and Audi has NUMEROUS lawsuits regarding this dangerous feature.

Interesting…my 18 SQ5 never ever shuts off. I have tried over and over and it’s yet to work. Ideas?

It could be that based on your preferences there is too big of draw on the engine/battery for this feature to activate- like a max heat or max cool setting on your climate control combined with full heated or cooled seats being on? Your SQ5 will also not turn off when in Sport mode. Those are just a few ideas that come to mind as to why it might not activate. You can also inquire in person the next time you bring your SQ5 in for service.

when i get ready to fully stop on red light, the car turns off even if the car not fully stopped?????

Yes, the system stops from slow speeds, not from a complete stop. If the engine is a mild hybrid system, the low speed threshold is increased quite a bit

I have a new Q7 55 TFSI. The System only works 2,000 meters below sea level. It is a normal behaivor?

Hi there- we cannot attest to the Start Stop System working at such an extreme depth. We are more familiar with the Start Stop System performing at elevations above sea level and elevation is a non-factor.

Honestly, I drive a 45tfsi. When the start/stop kicks in, I can feel the engine start via vibrations. When coasting, there is no vibration whatsoever

Hi there- if after watching our video and understanding how your Start Stop System works in your Audi, we would recommend booking a service appointment with your local Audi Dealer if you believe there is an issue with this feature in your vehicle.

Is this setting intended to assist in claiming Euro 5 emissions? Otherwise, it seems dumb that I have to rely on magician with a laptop to get rid of this 💩

Not true, you have tons of videos showing you how to turn start/stop system off permanetly :)

This "feature" is stopping me from buying an Audi. Not allowing consumers to turn off bad technology is impressively stupid. Way to take the luxury out of your luxury car

Sorry you feel this way. It is definitely not Audis intention to frustrate customers with a feature like this. All vehicle manufactures luxury/non-luxury are challenged to intergrade features to lower emissions and save fuel. While some people may not appreciate this- Audi has done their best to keep both the customer and the powers that be happy.

@@AudiRoyalOak This is the case because it is not an electric vehicle with a MASSSIVE electric battery to support the chronic switching to on off destroying the crank shafts etc.. This default mode is like half a hybrid without the massive battery to deal with the constant wear and tear of cranking.

Doesn't make any sense it stops working when the AC is on, so people should drive with the AC off in hot weather temperatures, ridiculous for a brand like Audi 😢

Just bought a brand new A3 - The implementation of this feature is appalling, randomly stalls in the most in opportune moments for no reason whatsoever. Now turn it off every journey

I just got my first Audi A5 after coming from Infiniti for 18 years. This is the dumbest "feature" ever invented. It can cause accidents if you need to quickly pull into cross traffic. There are multiple ways to disable it via obd11 or a physical cable. I would have never got the A5 if I couldn't disable the feature. Why they continue to put this on cars to bump up gas mileage claims is beyond me.

I hate this function ! I would like dealer to take it out permanently ! So dealers willing to do this for me !

They should be legally compelled to do it as this should be labeled a recall issue at the very least allow us to install harnesses without voiding the warranty. Buy an after market harness SUPER easy to put in it puts the car into thinking you pressed the button every time you start the car. There are loads of videos on it. You should be able to do it yourself it is that dead easy. The fact AUDI is digging their heels in acting like this would be impossible is DISGUSTING and scammy. Just when you go into the dealership to get work done remove it so they don't act like shysters and void your warranty for making your car safer so you don't DIE on the road with their dangerous system in place.

This is an incredible DANGEROUS feature it is the MOST hated feature on an Audi. People are getting into accidents because it starts and stops when it wants to. We understand Audi can't "legally" default it to off permanently because of stupid legal decisions but the company is /has faced numerous lawsuits because of the danger of this default feature. We as the consumer should be able to REMOVE this feature permanently, most of us are doing that as it is a danger to ourselves and our families. Audi in turn should not penalize us for trying to SAVE lives by removing this feature by voiding out our warranties!
