    Auto stop/start

    Hi, this can be a bit annoying when going to reverse park or park up the car, parking up: coming to a stop, engine stops, put in to neutral engine stops, engine restarts then stops, apply parking brake remove foot from brake engine starts then stops, place in "P" park engine starts, turn off...

    ECO Stop/Start

    I've searched a lot of threads and it looks like the ECO stop/start cannot be disabled other than each & every time one starts the engine via the console button. That's how it is on my C class, even after switching off the engine for only a couple of minutes. It's a real pain e.g. when...

    ECO stop/start - has anyone experienced this issue?

    Hi Guys So we're still getting used to the new car (picked her up on Saturday) and so far so good (except the annoying rattle from the passenger seat which I can't get to the bottom of!). I wanted to ask a question regarding the ECO stop/start system. When I start the car, the ECO...

    W204 Stop/Start gradually dying.

    I've a 2012 W204 C250cdi. The start/stop function is gradually becoming slower to engage, and lasts less time. It occasionally turns green after a mile or so, but more usually it takes 10+ miles. The time it will operate in stop mode has gradually decreased to between 10 and 60 seconds. I...

    Eco Stop/Start inoperative w204

    Igniton on - Orange eco dash light is on Start engine - 5 secs later it turns off, as does the light on the eco button which then has no function either. It's as if the car has no eco function at all. This happens about 99% of the time. It started a couple of years ago but has steadily...

    ECO mode - Stop/Start?

    Is there any use of this? At start I was thinking it is a good feature and it will help saving fuel etc. but it is gettig a bit annoyning when engine stops when you don't want it to be like roundabouts etc.? So I deactivated it only to realize that it comes on automatically when you start the...

    Confusion over W204 Stop/Start battery charging

    So this is probably going to end up being a dumb question, but I'll ask anyway. I have a 2012 W204 Estate with Start/Stop. Presumably this means that I have 2 batteries (i've only found the one in the boot at the moment - I can't see one under the bonnet yet). Anyhow, I am looking at getting a...

    Keyless Go stop/start button problem - R230

    After the installation of VCS (Linguatronic) to my SL I seem to have inherited a problem with my keyless go. The problem may be as a result of something that I have 'done' whilst installing the VCS equipment but I have checked all of my work and cant find anything that may have caused the...

    Eco Stop/Start

    Hi. Not sure if this is the right place, it might be a engine place question so if the mods want to move it please do. I have a W205 Estate C220 Bluetec, sport premium + and the eco stop/start is so useless as to be non functioning. I'm not going to bore you with its duty cycle, but to...

    stop/start

    Or is it start/stop? Anyway, the topic is whether this is impacting the flow of traffic in cities? I know they are pretty good in the way they work but I can't help thinking that the one second-ish delay is resulting in fewer queuing cars making it through a traffic light when the lights...

    Lo there, Following my year of owning a CLS, the wife & I have just acquired an '09 plate W169 A Class (A150 Avantgarde SE BlueEfficiency). Just wanted to check the Start/Stop function as the manual with the car differs a bit to the latest W169 manual from the Merc website. Starting the...

    Stop/Start

    How do members with this "eco" innovation fitted feel about stop/start? As mentioned elsewhere I'm shortly to take delivery of a C207. It will have this facility. I drove a Mini Cooper S with stop/start for an extended period last year. It drove me nuts! :D Do you normally switch it off...
