    Default Auto start/stop

    So my tuning software now has integrated the ability to disable the auto start most commonly known on Fords. It will do all models including the new GM’s.

    I took the online class on it and the “tune” does not leave a foot print so the dealer wouldn’t be able to tell it’s been disabled via software.... not that they would care.

    I’ll do this, calibrate speedo, disable speed limiter what ever you want to tweak while I’m in there for $200.00

    Since I have not done a Ford or GM for that matters I will do the first person that wants it done for free. All I ask is you make arrangements to leave it since it will be my first. In reality it shouldn’t take 30 mins but I want to make sure.

    I mean the engine cutting off at every stop has to be good for the starter and everything else right?

    I’ll be first if it falls through, I have a 2019. Auto start stop is the dumbest shit ever.

    How much for the speedo calibration by itself? Don't need to run over 104mph, and my auto start/stop is disabled via options on the dash.

    Buddy of mine disabled his 18 f150 ecoboost auto start stop by disconnecting a wire from the positive battery post.

    Cadillac CTS. Cuts off and won't get back going for 8-10 count when you mash the gas on one certain hill on the mountain. Would this solve that? Dealershit couldn't figure it out after even coming up in another unit and experiencing the same thing...

    I turn it off on my wife’s 528i as part of habitat now. Wish it was permanent.

    Same with mine. You have to plug something in that will draw power and it'll disable it. Aggravating for sure.
