Guess its the geek in me, if something doesn't work... i wanna know why, still have a run up to Scotland next month, lets see if it gets sorted, otherwise its a trip to PCS
Mine is the opposite... on my 2013 C180, the ECO symbol on the instrument cluster is green most of the he time, and the engine almost always switches off when the car is stopped... possibly the newer Stop/Start units (compared to 2011 and 2012 cars) are more efficient?
At any rate, I generally turn it off, because it can be very annoying - e.g. whenever I stop in order to reverse park the car, the engine switches itself off, then back on as soon as reverese gear is engaged. Etc...
I manually turn it back on when in a traffic jam or when waiting at lights that I know are long etc.
My understanding is that on newer cars the Stop/Start functionality is automatically deactivated when the transmission is in Sports mode? I.e. Stop/Start is only active when the transmission is in E (which is the default when starting the car) but not when in S (or M for paddle-shift equipped cars)?
Maybe its time to visit a dealer or specialist?Guess its the geek in me, if something doesn't work... i wanna know why, still have a run up to Scotland next month, lets see if it gets sorted, otherwise its a trip to PCS
