Default Disable Auto start/stop

Is there a way to permanently disable Auto start/stop, or does it have to be re-disabled every time the car is started?

Just get in the habit of either pushing the Auto Start/Stop button the minute you fire it up or immediately put the car in Sport or Sport + mode, or even set up and individual mode that has it shut off.

Agreed - it's a PITA!

On the new X5 we had the same issue, not sure why manufacturers are forcing customers to use the feature if they don't' want to. I ended up coding it using the bimmercode app (aftermarket app to reprogram BMWs) that is available, not sure if they have something similar for Porsches.

I believe this would work for you. https://t-design9.com/memory_module.html. I have a 991.1 so no need for Auto Start Stop for me as I can control that, but I have considered it so I could always start in Sport.

Quick note the disclaimer for 991.2 and 718....it won't work for those modelsFor now, it does NOT remember [ Sport ] on '17+ cars (991.2 and 718) where steering wheel **** installed. If your 991.2 or 718 car have SPORT button in the center console

If you mean that the T-Design module won't work on the .2 then you are mistaken. I've been running it in my .2 for months.

I looked at installing the T design on my .2.

I don't remember all the details on why I decided not to, except that the hook up for my car, after looking at it closely, seemed a bit squirly. So I passed.

At least that's what he site is saying if you have the steering wheel ****, this device won't work. If you have it and it is working, then they will need to update their site.

@felo001 - It says it does not work for Sport function if you have the steering wheel button, but that it will work for A/S/S and PSE.

Our tune will invert it so you don't have to push the button to turn it off. It will default off and then have to push the button to turn it on.

Bwahaaaaa!!! The lengths some people are willing to go to in order to avoid pushing one button <rolling eyes> $ 199 to pay for a module to do that?!

Hmmm.....Yet you pay Orange Theory $ 100 a month to make you exercise Give that finger a little exercise and press the button!.
