Yep, a lot of people turn it off due to it lashing the hell out of the timing chain significantly bumping up the $2000-$3000 maintenance schedule, or indeed making it even necessary. In addition, when the starter goes out it sells for about $1000. Part only. All of this amounts to dramatically reducing the service life of the engine. Replacing an engine costs a lot of CO2. Some will opt to just junk the beast because a new engine is $10k. I could go on and on. Avoid stop+start tech. It's meant to make ICE so unreliable that you run to an EV to get rid of all that shit mess. |
