The Easy Way to "DEFAULT OFF" VW Auto Start Stop
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ส.ค. 2024
- Does the Stop Start system drive you nuts? I find stop start very distracting. While a stop start system may save fuel economy, it is also a feature many of us do not want. In this video we will switch stop start to a default OFF position in a VW golf. There are other ways to completely disable START/STOP free ~ • How To Turn Off STOP S...

The number 1 most hated car feature. Great video! I learned something today 🤘
Why is it so hated
@@BrateTebra123 auto start stop is very bad on Volkswagen. works great on honda
@@elayachi4833 what is so bad about it.
@@miles2829 very slow start and some times car turn completely off so you need to strat car by keys
Bought this mod, installed as you demonstrated. I’m VERY happy with it!! One of my favorites!! Thank you!
Just installed the devise on my brand new 2021 MK 7.5. It functions as advertised.
However, popping out the button array was a challenge. Didn't just give it up as per the vid. I grabbed the instructions and lo and behold, I needed to use the pry tool to nudge out the bottom end of the array. Viola! She promptly gave it up.
I'm happy now and looking forward to many years of enjoyable motoring without annoyance. A great $60 fix w/o messing with the coding.
Thanks, Mr. Humble.
Thanks for the tip as i was struggling with my 2021. But, I had no luck luck on my 2021…..with the jumper in still defaults to on. The button still toggles on and off…..anyone?
Yeah video just didn't explain how to do it correctly.
Nice, I have to do this on my A5.
And yes it's an emission thing, my car is labeled class A although it's a 2.0 TFSI because it has a start/stop system :)
If you were to drive it as a company car, you'd have to pay less taxes and such.
Finally, an alternative! Great job!
@HumbleMechanic I work for a VW dealership and since about 2 months, there is a recall for all Mk7 Golfs for the chrome trims around the shift lever that you mentioned at the beginning of the video, makes a few people happy they don’t have to pay for it haha
Heck yea!!!!
Wait really? My wife cut herself pretty badly about a month ago on this and I ended up covering it with electrical tape as a temporary fix. I haven’t seen a recall notice. Is this official?
@@bshwayde Yes it is ! The recall code is 34L8 but does only apply on Golfs with A/T or DSG, not manuals though
@@TheCarGuru Yeahh I’ve heard so many people telling the service advisors that they would like to replace the chrome trim or that they’ve cut themselves, I’m sorry to hear that ! …the replacement part is painted and not covered with a chrome layer so it doesn’t happen again
@@Legofan1401DatFotherMucker Is it US recall? my dealer says there are no recalls for it. And I googled there is recall in Canada.
Guessing all it does is simulates pushing the button when it gets power and reads the actual switch to determine the mode you want on or off. Pretty nifty and could be done for pretty much any car that has a button for it.
I had installed one of these in my 2020 golf r and it actually has some logic in the one I got from aliexpress. You can have it set to not turn off from start. To be the same as factory or you can have it remember the last start stop setting before shutting the car off. It's much better than programming it out.
@@Archiemosses Great now your car is a spy
First thing I did 3 years ago with Carista turn stop/start off and the stupid soundaktor no problems so far all good. As per usual cracking video 👍🇬🇧
Awesome! Going to do this for my dad on his GTI. He hates start stop!
START/STOP, I remember seeing a video where Volkswagen showed it off in the 80's as a option for some Polos. The wiper stalk had a button that you pressed to stop and start the engine at a traffic light.
Hilarious I just stumbled onto this video and I already installed the same part from Aliexpress last month on my 2019 Golf R. It works fantastic no messing with voltage or pulling sensor plug in the engine compartment.
I got one a while back too. Works like a charm.
Just got one
Built my own device that works similar before I knew these things were on the market. Very handy to have one these new vehicles if you dislike the start/stop systems
Mod of the year👍
Thanks so much for this video, it helped a lot when I installed this in my 2019 Tiguan. This mod is awesome, I hate the start/stop.
After watching this, I went to their site and sold out till Dec! Still awesome, not in that big of a rush to get one so I can wait till Dec. Thanks HumbleMechanic!
We are working hard to get inventory levels back to normal. Thank you for your interest and support! Check on site soon or follow us on social media for any updates.
We are taking Pre-Orders for our next production run. Orders will be fulfilled in the order they were placed so get in now before they sell out again! Thank you!
Thats why i love old cars,less technology but a real driving experience.More technology one car build in,more problems in the futur.Greetings from Germany.
You’re not wrong haha
Thats why i daily drive a MK2 Golf, no tech and no problems.
I recently bough a B8 Passat R Line and the stop start has been bugging me so much, the car is already on it's second Battery per the service records, which gives me reason not to use it..
So this is bloody amazing! Thanks!
Sometimes I wonder if I should replace my Golf Mk 5, then I remember that it lacks this and some other annoyances (like electronic parking brakes)
Arrived and fitted today .. perfect thank you. My original voltage was 7.8 and you show 7.6 ... does that make any difference?
This is a God send, I'm so excited to order one. I hate having to remember to turn it off every time lmao
We are taking Pre-Orders for our next production run. Orders will be fulfilled in the order they were placed so get in now before they sell out again! Thank you!
Do you think this would be the same for a 2020 A3? Obviously the button is in a different place; but do you think if I took the dash apart I would be able to hook it up in pretty much the same way?
Just ordered this thanks for the video!
Super pumped for Arno and b2bfab. Good dudes and a good company.
No way! This is awesome. I never did the coding as I wouldn't be able to handle the icon. HumbleMechanic to the rescue!
Edit: Sold out, darn it!

Good stuff Charles:):)
Best guide ever! Thank you!
Thank you sir. I just ordered one after watching this video. I can't stand that "feature" and have grown tired disabling it. I really hate when you have it disabled in Race mode and switch to Comfort and it turns itself back to enabled. Hopefully it fixes that too. Can you test that for us? As always thanks for leading the way and sharing with the VW community.
I’ll do it right now!
Stays as you left it in all modes
@@HumbleMechanic Sweet! I got mine in the mail today. Can't wait to install this weekend.
Just unplug it entirely, the whole system is horrible for the car anyway.
Thanks, from Scotland 🏴
Working perfectly
I did this to my Jeep. Mine was a little more expensive at $100, but well worth the money IMO.
This with coding works but you get a lot of entries in the "car" menu: Start / Stop voltage too low or unnecessary run engine while stationary.
But works for me the best!
Great tutorial. Picked up one of these gadgets from Ali Express for AU$20
Yesssss, I've been waiting for something like this!
Wish I’d have done this the first go. Haha
Can now also confirm this product works great! Not having to push that dang button every time I get in the car has been magical.
I had a 2010 E82 & was able to thankfully disable start stop trash just by downloading an app connecting to OBD, & enabling "start stop memory".
You did a good deed by helping out B2B with their product, they are sold out!
Charles, I got this as a Christmas Gift and man what a bear to install. I have a 2020 GTI and I could not get the switches to pop up. You made it look so easy, so not sure what I was doing wrong, but they would not budge. So I installed with them in place and what a PITA. Its in, but when I start the car the system does deactivate upon turning the key, but I hear this low "Nat Nat" electrical sound coming from the shifter area. It didn't do this before the jumper install, so was curious is this normal? Does the harness contain some kind of relay or something inside the wiring that causes a sound? If the noise keeps bugging me, I may just put it back to stock, but for now its a muffled sound and only does it when the car starts about 2-3 seconds after. Strange. Your Thoughts??
Awesome mod Charles
Like the Golf GTE should default to GTE-mode when switching out of full electric b/c batteries depleted. ;) Great that these mods are possible.
I finally got mine in. I had already been looking at these and was about to order when I saw your video then saw they sold out in less than a half hour! 😳
Anyway, my GTI is a 2021 and the buttons definitely don’t pop out that easily. There are four tabs that have to be pressed to release them from the trim. There was no way they were coming out without removing the whole trim. Not hard since it’s just removing the cubby and two screws, but thought it might be helpful for some people that might be struggling with the button removal.
Now to figure out why I have a USB hub with an unused burgundy connector and a mystery brown one that goes to nothing (?) on an S trim GTI 🤷♂️🤣
Yea, I had to use needle-nose pliers to pull the bottom clip up while pressing the sides in. I felt dumb for about 10 minutes.
Currently installing mine and was like what da! He just popped the buttons out no problem I've been struggling for 10 minutes. Thanks for the comment.
Thanks
This comment needs to be pinned
Just following up on the wires that you found? Did you find out what they wree for? Also, yeah I just installed my jumper today and what a PITA. I could not get the switches out, ended up doing the install with them in place. I didn't want to take the console out. I have noticed a sound though after install. Like a "nat nat" a moment after the key is turned. Not sure if that is normal or not?
Is the process for coding the same for a ‘21 Tiguan? That is if I don’t want to buy the jumper you bought here.
Thank you @HumbleMechanic this is helpful as I just bought a new golf and absolutely hate the stop start issues.
What issues exactly? Mine works perfectly
@@thezeek2745 if it works, it's an issue. Stop/Start is gross, but unfortunately it's here to stay.
Most stop start systems are just tacked onto existing cars that were never intended to have them. Most are clunky, slow and feel no different than having your engine stall out on you. The only place they belong is on hybrids, where you don't have to rely on the combustion powertrain for everything. I'm so used to getting into a car and just driving it without having to fiddle around with the settings every time I start it. Mods like this are a godsend.
I will give vw credit here. Of all the cars that have it,vw/Audi is among the best. I had a rogue rental, I thought it would never start lol
Is it possible to do this with the Lane Assist function and vcds ? My 2021 Tiguan and T-Roc activates every time i start the car
Very helpful, hated having to always turn the button off on my 21 Tiguan
Thanks!
@HumbleMechanic on 1:46 you stick finger beneath the buttons and pop them up but i cant do it on the Arteon 2018 its just there is no space to put the fingers there , its different and i cant figure it out how to pop them up. Any idea?
So, I’m looking to get a golf R but in a MT, does it have this feature on the MT as well? Or is this a automatic thing?
Fantastic. Would this work on my Skoda Karoq 1.5tsi. I hate the start stop always needing to be manually pressed off.
Great! We like 😁 How did you edit the start-up text in the display?
Hello mate
Great video
Quick question
I did through vcds on my skoda octavia with coding
But for some reason I can't anymore change mode ( it dosent work anymore) by pressing button next to start stop button
Any help will be much appreciated
Thank you
Kind Regards
J
Would this be the same procedure for a 2015 B8 vw passat 2.0 tdi? I'd love to remove stop/start. Tried remapping it out and the car didn't like it, went all glitchy.
hi charles i have 1question i have vw golf 2004 i went to change oil after 6days oil in engine totally empty then i put 2liters of oil then it was empty again my question is what is the problem? i hope i can get an answer from you so i get an idea why it happens..thank you
Just bought mine can't wait to get it but they are pre orders right now
What are the part numbers of the plastic trim pieces in case we break something during installation?
My first experience with stop/start was in a diesel caddy with close to 300,000 km. I had no idea it had the feature. Got to roundabout, it shut off just as I went to go, it struggled to turn over, I'm half in the roundabout about to get barrelled by a semi when it finally came to life. Never been that scared in my life. If I ever get a new VW this would be ordered immediately.
This is very weird and not how this should work. My dad Jetta has it and I also have it in my Ram and in both cars, from my experience, the engine is back to life and ready to throttle up before your foot is completely off the brake. Just moving your foot on the pedal a tiny bit, without releasing the brake turns the engine back ON.
This is awesome! Definitely should have been this way from the factory. Definitely worth the $50.
It's a mandated feature, it's literally impossible for them to offer it as an option
Thank you for the support!
@@Hawk7886 I think some fords shipped without it due to chip shortages affecting offering the start/stop module
I literally am in the habit of close door, seatbelt , turn key , turn off auto start like second nature . Every once in a while I don’t push the button and I’ll come to a stop and think the car just died on me 😂😂😂
Hi there . My friend has a 2018 VW caddy van 2.0 TDI and he wants to disable traction control but there is no button to switch it off. Is there a way to switch it off?
And... its sold out. I need this! TY for posting
We are taking Pre-Orders for our next production run. Orders will be fulfilled in the order they were placed so get in now before they sell out again! Thank you!
Great information, do you think this will also work for a Skoda karoq 2020 ?
This is awesome. I honestly can’t stand the start stop crap anymore. Def ordering this ASAP. I’ve also been having this issue pulling out of a downslope driveway. My R thinks I’m going to get into an accident and throws on the brakes it’s so dangerous. If you turn off the sensors it won’t do it but I’d like them to be on. I believe it’s were my license plate is placed that’s causing an issue.
Not related to license plate, it happens to all Golfs. This point crops up pretty regularly on the Golf fb groups. Same would happen on my driveway if I exited too fast, or on some steeper driveways. I just learned to avoid it happening. Drive slower or take the driveway at more of an angle if possible.
I have start/stop on my 2012 Passat Alltrack (B7). Have not found any cable for the B7 version, but I wonder if this could work on my car too...
THANK YOU VERY MUCH 😁
that look on his face when he said he's not worried that his wife's key battery was low hahahaha
Rumor has it, I’m still not worried. Hahah
Interesting mod. Will that work on a B7 Passat 125TDI? All the workings look very similar.
And yes I’ve had the engine check light on 2 or 3 times in my 10 year ownership. Which is 2 or 3 times more than my Alfa Romeo!
brilliant...i always forget to switch the stop start off b4 i set off and end up doing it after the first time i have to stop...proper bugs me
When I had my Passat b7 1.6tdi my start procedure was clutch, push key, start stop button in that order, would of been nice to have had it always off
What will happen if I install this jumper piece, but do not do any changes to the voltage (7.6) in the open controller. I do not have a laptop or the software you show in the video. Thanks
Hi! Does this work with other VW AG types like Skoda Superb 2017 2.0 TSI 6DSG?
Great solution! Does it work with the Tiguan 18+?
Hello , I have 22 tiguan no digital cockpit , it's a se model , it's there a way to instal it on my suv ?
Gonna install this on my e-Golf.
Gagahha
I actually wouldn’t mind the feature if there was a way I could control it with the brake pedal. Under normal breaking it’s always on, but if I feel like I could be sitting for a few minutes… press down further and it stops. I have an SQ5 and it’s just WAY too sensitive. Is what I’m suggesting even possible by altering the programming?
Hello Guy thx for your help 😊
Do you know if the cable is compatible with Golf 8 ?
The EPA is gonna be PRESSED after watching this video 😂😂😂
They punching the air rn ☠️😂
Given the Golf and the A3 being almost the same, would the harness work on my 2019 a3? I hate pressing stop every time I turn my car on. Thanks 🙏🏽
The button panel, plug, and interface are slightly different on the A3. Keep an eye on our social media, we will post when they are ready for pre-order. Thank you!
You could have done what my best friend did with a persistent dash warning light, put a piece of tape over the display and block it! Very nice little gizmo and apparently works.
This is another reason Im happy with my Mark 4 R32
Does disconnecting the battery terminal and let it settle for a few minute then reattach them back automatically disable those function?Those trick works for Perodua car tho.
can you do this on a 2019 tiguan, or do you have to remove all the trim pieces?
Going to give this a try. My mk7 GLI I got as a replacement for my totaled GTI has been coded with OBD11 but still engages when I stop. My other cars like my wife’s atlas have worked with the vcds coding but this GLI keeps killing the engine when I stop even with coding until I manually press the button. Hopefully this will work as advertised. Thanks Charles.
Got mine in today, installed in minutes. Appears to be working as advertised. I did go back and return the voltage values for the vcds coding to default 12.1 before installing.
I just ordered mine! It's in preorder status!
Thank you for your order!
I ordered an ODB Eleven for that (and other things), but it was not available. I'm ordering this right away !
Would it work on a 2016 octavia as well. They are both VAG after all :)
Love this
That's slick!
1:52
Trying this on my 2019 gti rabbit, the damn buttons won’t raise at all. Am I missing something or is it different for my year/model?
Can I do this on my Alfa Romeo too. Your vid is brilliant and gives hope as I absolutely hate start stop as its ruined my Alfa battery :(
Woo, thanks for that 🙏
Is there a way to make that the driving mode is automatically active when you start the car?
I have one question about this harness and I'm willing to try it out if no one has done it before. Has anyone tried to use this on a 2020 GTI MK7.5. I have been trying to use the adaptation voltage change on my OBD11 but nothing happens. (doesn't work on this car type) I have even tried the apps that OBD11 gives out but nothing helps. Please help HumbleMechanic!!!
Do you have to reset the voltage on vagcom for the jumper wire to work?
Best mod that ive done
That is is pretty cool! is this available for the Cupra and Seat cars?
Cheers Charles, I’ll be buying a harness. Hope they are available to the UK!
We are taking Pre-Orders for our next production run and yes we ship to the UK. Orders will be fulfilled in the order they were placed so get in now before they sell out again! Thank you!
You can get one for a tenner on A**express.
Came across this vid looking for a way to fix a stuck 'stop/start button' - I think crumbs are in there.... Anyway, this is a much better solution. I'm guessing it would work on an Australian equivalent Mk 7?
Nice mod😎
Totally getting this for my wife's tiggy. The Start/Stop is the absolute worst on days that it's over 100⁰ and it cuts off your A/C. It's like the Germans forgot deserts exist.
My car does not turn off when outside temp is over a certain temperature exactly for that reason, it is a 2016 SEAT ateca (vw group).
Does it also work on 2020 1.4l Jetta?
Does this fits the q3?
Would this also work on a 16 Touran TDI?
Erm, in my country you go to a specialist with VCDS and disable that from the software. When you start the car, it shuts down automatically after 3 seconds. Best way to disable it and still use it if you want it.
You realise that’s what Charles had already done previously, right? He addresses this in the video.
