Idle Stop and Go disable manufacturer.

Same in Oregon and Washington.

Mine as well, and it has been getting colder here.

Is there a link to what logic the AutoStop/go uses? I can't remember it in the manual.

Starter

Saw on a tiktok a mechanic was hating on the theta (4 cyl) stinger engine because in order to replace the starter the entire engine needs to be hoisted out. Basically it's a huge labour bill if your starter goes kaput out of warranty. Does anyone know if the V6 engine has the same issue?

What country / climate are you in?
Is it getting cold where you drive?

Seattle area. But it has been non-functional since summer. Also have a low tire pressure warning but that has only been on for the last month or so, when the weather changed. I'm going to make them look at it when I take my car in for an oil change soon.

Curious what the dealers conclusion will be, for both the ISG and the TPMS issues.


It's a low pressure warning but the pressure isn't low?

The TPMS warnings were legit. The ISG and lack of Eco Coast and Smart Coast are definitely problems...

One thing people don't think about, in climates where it gets cold, if you had sufficient tire pressure in the summer, when the temps drop 50+ degress, this will reduce tire pressure several PSI. You need to fill them back up to spec.

I know many folks are satisfied with one of the cheaper options (wedge something in the button or add a resistor yourself) and that is great. Just in case someone wants something completely plug and play that does not require tapping, cutting, splicing any wires, the folks over at Autostop Eliminators have their Stinger harness now available.

Anyone happy with wedging something into the button to keep it depressed or splicing/tapping into the wiring to add a resistor for an inexpensive remedy by all means that is fine. I'm just throwing out there the other option for anyone who is not aware.
