The Start and Stop has arrived for many years on all new generation cars.
Initially we thought it was a bit un benefit for all motorists and for cars, in reality over time several defects and problems related to it have come out which have put it into strong discussion.
For this reason, anyone who owns a modern car, goes on a continuous search for methods through which to deactivate it once and for all in order not to have problems.
In fact it must be said that it’s not like that at all and that the truth is far from what all motorists believe.
Why is the car having problems: is the cause of the start and stop?
It can happen that a car that has the Start and Stop has problems, just like it happens with all the other components which are subject to wear. It does not necessarily have to be seen as a problem related to the function, which rather comes in support of motorists.
We all know how this works: goes to turn off and restart the engine, when this is idling and therefore consumes petrol unnecessarily and more. About this in fact many think that if you turn it off it’s betterbecause the fact that it turns the vehicle’s engine on and off discharges the battery.
It is not so. If the vehicle has a battery problem, it is probably related to something else. Then, if the battery is flat, being monitored by a sensor, the Start and Stop is deactivated automatically, so you don’t run the risk of being stuck.
Regardless of this, if you notice that you have a battery problem, the only thing to do is to change it before you really run out.
Start and stop and fuel consumption, what is the truth
Then there are also those who think it causes greater consumption, in reality it is not so because even saves up to 0.5 liters of petrol for every 100 km travelled.
Also in this case if the car consumes too much, that’s not why. The cause is probably something wrong with the driving style. Another false myth is added to these two, namely that activating the start and stop means not having control of the car. It’s not true because it’s simply like turning the car off by turning the key to save petrol.
To restart, all you need to do is lift your foot and press the accelerator, so it’s not even true that with the advent of the function, many more queues are created around the street or at the traffic lights. The advice is to get informed.
