Method to turn off the auto start-stop function in the Buick Excelle: The start-stop function switch is located next to the ignition switch or on the center console panel. After the engine starts, the auto start-stop system will activate. Pressing the button can manually deactivate the auto start-stop system. Below is a related introduction to the Buick Excelle: 1.

I've been driving a Buick Excelle for three years, and the most annoying feature is the auto start-stop function. It defaults to on every time you start the car, but the button is near the air conditioning panel, marked with an 'A' inside a circle with an arrow. It's so irritating when the engine shuts off at red lights that I've made it a habit to press the button first thing when I get in the car. The dashboard will show a yellow warning light indicating it's turned off. Remember to disable this function before driving through water to prevent engine damage from a secondary start. To permanently disable it, you'd need to reprogram the system, but the dealership doesn't recommend it as it could void the warranty on the vehicle's electrical system. Frequent start-stop in traffic jams does save fuel, but the engine vibration really affects comfort. Plus, replacing an AGM start-stop battery costs an extra thousand bucks. I just keep it turned off all the time now.
