Thoughts on Auto Stop/Start?

Permanently off on my car.

Personally I leave it enabled in my 2020. Some early versions of stop/start that I've driven were a little slow in the "start" part. Besides, if I'm feeling a bit rowdy, it's disabled in any of the sport modes anyways.

Am I the only one that likes the sound the As/s makes? I catch drivers sneaking a head turn whenever my f36 starts up at the lights...

I’m MPPK+MPE + res delete.

I personally only use AS/S when driving downtown in light to moderate traffic then turn it off in bumper to bumper.
