How to permanently disable the engine shut-off when opening the door on Audi A6L?
1 Answers
Audi A6L's engine shut-off function when opening the door cannot be permanently disabled. Here are the relevant details: 1. The door-opening engine shut-off feature on the Audi A6L is an integral part of Audi's latest automatic start-stop system. 2. The advantage of this function is effective fuel savings, and drivers can also turn it off using the button with an 'A' inside a circle on the central console. 3. Disadvantages of Audi's door-opening engine shut-off setting: (1) Increased maintenance costs. The automatic start-stop system places higher demands on the starter, battery, and engine oil, thus increasing maintenance expenses. (2) Reduced comfort in summer. When the engine stops, the air conditioning compressor also stops working, inevitably causing the cabin temperature to rise in hot summers. In particularly sunny southern regions, to maintain cabin temperature, the engine will automatically restart to keep the compressor running and adjust the temperature, but the fluctuating temperatures can make passengers uncomfortable. (3) Frequent starts and stops during stop-and-go traffic can cause engine vibrations, leading to discomfort for the driver.
