How to Turn Off the Engine Start-Stop Technology in the 2019 Corolla?
1 Answers
Except for the base manual transmission model, all other Corolla variants are equipped with an automatic start-stop system. The automatic start-stop is enabled by default and activates whenever the car is started. To turn it off, simply press the automatic start-stop button. Here are some details about the car's automatic start-stop system: 1. When encountering a red light or stopping for other reasons, pressing the brake pedal will typically cause the engine to shut off automatically after about two seconds. 2. Frequent engine starts and stops can cause damage to related components, such as the starter and battery. Although vehicles with an automatic start-stop system use enhanced starters and batteries, in practice, these components experience higher failure rates compared to regular vehicles without the system. 3. Due to the engine's frequent starts and stops, higher-quality engine oil is required, leading to increased maintenance costs.
