Start -Stop. Ha! Hate it when it works, wonder why (insert expletive of your preference) it doesn't work sometimes when it's not?
I've mastered the "feathered brake pedal". It works. The car gets annoyed because it will tell you to "Fully apply Brake to engage Start/Stop"... I can deal! I've also learned to push the steering wheel slightly to start the engine a few sec's before the traffic light changes... get that oil pressure built up before I hit the GO pedal!
By the way... some of you think this system is only for fuel savings... it's also for Emissions. I work for an auto company... It's 2 birds with 1 stone thing....
