Does Start-Stop Damage the Engine?

[GiselleMarie]

Vehicle start-stop functionality does not damage the engine. If it were harmful, this technology would not be installed. The functions of start-stop technology are as follows: 1. Reduce fuel consumption: When the vehicle is idling for extended periods, such as at traffic lights or in traffic jams, pausing the engine operation can prevent unnecessary fuel output, thereby lowering fuel consumption. 2. Reduce wear: When the car's engine is running, internal cylinders continuously move. The start-stop system pauses the engine operation, reducing friction caused by moving internal parts, thus minimizing wear and tear.
