so.. in mailaysia where there is now the CVT start motor problem... those do not have the start /stop function?
and maybe because of that we here in the EU have a larger start motor and other modifications so we dont have that problem?
Anyone convert non-asg to asg?

My Space Star definately doesnt like the cold weather, been here around 0C for weeks now and the Start Stop light doesnt come one even after 20 minutes drive
I wonder if you turn off the heat/defrost at stops if that would make it stop.
Also, any Euro owners willing to film a short video showing this feature in action? With audio?

Bumping this thread hoping for some feedback from those who have it.
I was in a car that had this auto stop/start and thought it was pretty clever. I've been doing it in my pushbutton start ES if I know I'll be stopped for a while. I dislike having the dome light come on, so I turned that off. I also dislike the radio turning off when I shut off the engine - that is, when I am using it.
Also, it would be cool to have the regenerative braking, and the bigger starter. The alternator and the starter might just be a part number search away...

I will try to make a video with the Auto start stop function working tomorrow ..

The UK cars have it and it works very well indeed. What makes it good is there's a whole heap of conditions that mean it *wont* trigger, even when armed. For example - if the coolant is too cold, the ambient temp is too low, you've pressed the brake pedal twice in a certain period of time (say 30 secs), if you've not gone above ~5mph, if you've got a lot of electrical drain on, not enough pressure on the brake pedal, etc. etc.
When it does kick, it seems to wait to a point in the engine's cycle before killing the ignition so that when it restarts it does so on a single compression - no churning on the starter.
The only thing I don't like is that to make the system engage, one has to have a foot on the brake pedal - and therefore if you're in a tailback, the person behind you is treated to your brake lights all the time; you can't engage the handbrake and step off the service brakes.
