How to Permanently Turn Off the Auto Start-Stop in Sagitar?
2 Answers
Sagitar does not have a permanent button to turn off the start-stop function. If you want to disable it, you need to unplug the start-stop connector from the battery or modify the start-stop voltage threshold using a 5053 diagnostic tool. To activate the start-stop function, simply press the auto start-stop button. Pressing it again will turn off the auto start-stop system, but you will need to manually disable it each time you start the vehicle. The auto start-stop technology automatically shuts off the engine when the car is temporarily stopped, such as at a traffic light, and restarts it when the car begins to move, provided the engine is at operating temperature. The Sagitar is an A+ class comfortable sedan with body dimensions of 4544mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1461mm in height.
I'm a big car enthusiast and often tinker with my Sagitar for DIY projects. Permanently disabling the start-stop system isn't as simple as pressing a button. You need to use an OBD diagnostic tool to connect to the car's ECU and flash the program, such as modifying the setting codes with VCDS or OBDeleven software to completely disable it. I found tutorials online and tried it myself, which took some effort to get right. But be warned: random modifications might trigger the malfunction indicator light or affect the warranty, and if you mess up the system, you'll need to restore it. It's best to back up data before operating, or ask a knowledgeable friend for help. Driving without the start-stop is really worry-free, but occasionally after software updates you'll need to check if it resets. In short, if you want a permanent solution, you'll need to take risks or pay for professional service.
