|This is peculiar, to each their own I guess. I had ASG (Auto Stop & Go) firstly on my 2010 Mitsubishi Colt 1.3 Cleartec. At first it bloody annoyed me but I adopted the opinion that it's there so don't worry about. Since 2010 I've had a few with ASG, doesn't bother me one bit. The Mirage makes its own mind up whether it's going to operate or not. If the green A is displayed above the econometer it'll cut out at lights etc, if it isn't illuminated it'll not shut off. I haven't a clue what makes it either go on or go off. I drive the car and just don't think about it.

Eggy, in response to your post regarding AS&G ( Hi guys,
Are the two Dutchmen really the only people on this forum driving a Space Star/Mirage with an Auto Stop and Go system as previously stated I do have it. My car has the switch to disengage AS&G on the centre console forward of the gear lever adjacent to the heated seat switches.
Curiously I have had the AS&G operating when the air con is on, it mostly refuses to come on in damp/wet driving conditions.So that's about 367 days a year then
I'll photograph my battery tomorrow (if I can find it, is it the size of a Duracell AA)
Maybe I should have pointed out that it's a rather old post?
It appears that a lot has to happen in order for AS&G to work.

Not really, in my experience. It just works unless.
That list is of exceptions more or less logical. AS&G won't work if it can't guarantee it can start the engine in the time needed to press the clutch. (Engine cold, Battery voltage too low, ...).
It won't work when the engine is needed for other purposes than driving. (Airco, heating, high electric load).
And then there are some weird exceptions, like 'You don't use your safety belt.'
BTW, it feels a bit strange when you are waiting for a traffic light, and suddenly the engine starts because the airco switches on, or the engine is getting cold/battery too low. In that case I'd prefer to have a warning, so I could have the choice to switch off the engine before it restarts.
In that case you have either the rear- or the frontwindow defogging on? High electric load.it mostly refuses to come on in damp/wet driving conditions
