Are you people clueless about how cars charge are you ? Clearly air con systems .. and heaters need an alternator running to keep your battery charging … do everyone a favour ; don’t breed !

Any update on how to stop this? I have an Audi a5 coupe and it also does this. I feel like people think that I have stalled the car lol.

You have to get the harness then pull out he tray .. it is online it isn't difficult or expensive to do. Everyone is doing it because this default feature is so incredibly dangerous and Audi has NUMEROUS lawsuits regarding this dangerous feature.

same here, 35tfsi

Where can I find these?

With the newer models, year 2020 and newer is not that simple anymore. Some even say impossible. I am talking about the Audi.

@@janpravica5346 I didn't realize that the situation had changed, but you are right, it did change. I saw a KZfaq video where a guy was showing people how to do it now. It's just more complicated. Audi obviously really wants those engines to get torn up as quickly as possible.

Depends on which Audi model, but this is normal operation - coasting feature!

@@AudiRoyalOak haha proper Audi answer

Yes, the system stops from slow speeds, not from a complete stop. If the engine is a mild hybrid system, the low speed threshold is increased quite a bit

There might be a broken sensor.

Hi there- we cannot attest to the Start Stop System working at such an extreme depth. We are more familiar with the Start Stop System performing at elevations above sea level and elevation is a non-factor.

It could be that based on your preferences there is too big of draw on the engine/battery for this feature to activate- like a max heat or max cool setting on your climate control combined with full heated or cooled seats being on? Your SQ5 will also not turn off when in Sport mode. Those are just a few ideas that come to mind as to why it might not activate. You can also inquire in person the next time you bring your SQ5 in for service.

Yes, what's the answer? I DO NOT WANT THIS FEATURE.

Sorry you feel this way. It is definitely not Audis intention to frustrate customers with a feature like this. All vehicle manufactures luxury/non-luxury are challenged to intergrade features to lower emissions and save fuel. While some people may not appreciate this- Audi has done their best to keep both the customer and the powers that be happy.

@@AudiRoyalOak Sorry it IS this way. Sorry to hear this is the "best" Audi can offer. Sorry that a janky function that makes the car dangerous at busy intersections can't be turned off completely.

Hi there- if after watching our video and understanding how your Start Stop System works in your Audi, we would recommend booking a service appointment with your local Audi Dealer if you believe there is an issue with this feature in your vehicle.

This is not the case, start/stop systems are not traditional starer motors.

@@AudiRoyalOak So leave the way it is designed?

@@AudiRoyalOak This is the case because it is not an electric vehicle with a MASSSIVE electric battery to support the chronic switching to on off destroying the crank shafts etc.. This default mode is like half a hybrid without the massive battery to deal with the constant wear and tear of cranking.

They should be legally compelled to do it as this should be labeled a recall issue at the very least allow us to install harnesses without voiding the warranty. Buy an after market harness SUPER easy to put in it puts the car into thinking you pressed the button every time you start the car. There are loads of videos on it. You should be able to do it yourself it is that dead easy. The fact AUDI is digging their heels in acting like this would be impossible is DISGUSTING and scammy. Just when you go into the dealership to get work done remove it so they don't act like shysters and void your warranty for making your car safer so you don't DIE on the road with their dangerous system in place.
