Lol 😂 I know what you mean I came from a Chevy Malibu 2004 to a 2017 last year and that start and stop 🛑 was driving me crazy haven’t driven that car 🚙 in 5 months so when I’m well and can start back driving it will be no more start and stop ✋🏾 for me
Eureka!! It worked on my '18 Malibu!! I no longer have to deak with my car shutting off at every stop at every light, every drive thru, everytime I come to astop sign. Thanks for making this video, always having to put it back into L6 is slightly a nuisance, but not that bad

@@PocketAcesforRonPaul auto start stop vehicles are fitted with a battery more than triple the capacity of a regular car battery. They also use an entirely different starter for the auto start stop system only that has been completely reengineered for this heavy usage
You, and about a million other people have worried about this same issue. How stupid, to equip a vehicle with such a maddening and component-wearing device. I can only imagine how much Mr. Goodwrench would want to install a new starter. Sheesh!
Thank you very much for the detailed explanation. Especially the part that assured us this will not ruin the vehicle. I rented an equinox. I hate this feature!

If you're uncomfortable doing this, there is a very easy way to defeat auto stop while driving. Simply pump the brake pedal lightly when you are approaching a stop. The computer will think you are in stop and go traffic and will not engage auto stop/start. One or two pumps and you don't even have to lift your foot from the brake pedal. It becomes second nature after a bit. Our Chevy salesman showed me this trick when we picked up our 2017 Cruze.
This is pretty much what i have always done. But basically just ease on the brake and never push completely down. But if the auto stop does engage i lift off the break slightly til it disengages but car doesn't move. When light changes or its time to go i move effortlessly. But Chevy should just put a button like most other vehicle if they insist on having it equipped.
@@tjpont2149 I do the same thing in my 2018 GMC Terrain, It is now a natural thing without thinking about it. On long stops (train crossing or bridge opening) I do still use auto stop to save on the gas just running for no reason...
Thank you for taking the time to explain this function and how to turn it off. I am currently having engine issues with my Malibu when it goes into AutoStop. So for me to be able to turn it off has relieved a lot of stress until I am able to get it fixed. Also -- I hope that you have a very Blessed Day as well! :-)
Kristina Friend what I’ve learned is you just have to replace the battery that’s in the trunk it’s gone bad I’ve had my 2015 Malibu for going on 5 years had to change both the front and trunk battery and I haven’t had a problem since
We are having the same issues with our daughter ‘s 2014 Chevrolet Malibu. The auto stop just turns off the engine at the stop light ☹️ and we can’t start it back up of like a minute or two. ☹️
Kudos for a very good direct-and-to-the-point presentation of the "fix." I recently bought a 2019 Chevy Equinox with the 6-speed and simply put it in "L," set it to "L-6" with the little "+" sign, then drive away. I also talked to the shop manager at the dealership where I bought the Equinox and he assured me that it would not harm the vehicle at all and that it also would not affect the extended bumper-to-bumper warranty I bought. Badda bing, badda boom!

Do you have to put your car in L9 gear each time you start your car and use L vs D while driving? or is this a one-time thing (my apologies if you addressed this in your tutorial, I'm just not 100% on that) I just purchased a 2020 Traverse I noticed I'm using close to what I did (in fuel) as I did with my Tahoe. I'm hoping this will help. Auto stop is a little annoying when you drive SoCal traffic. Thanks!
Margom562 M you just have to do it when you start driving, it gives u almost the same gas mileage cause the Tahoe turned into 4 cylinders and V8 when it needed, the traverse is running on 6 cylinders all the time
Thank you so much I did not test drive my vehicle before I bought it I was in a hurry due to health issues.. drive it out of the and dealership parking lot and flip the biscuit I hate the stop and go ignition..
I believe later cars have an “autostop off” button. Of course you have to touch it every time you drive. The last I looked you could get a “flip kit” for Ford trucks that makes it default to the “off” position. It installs behind the dash. Maybe there are kits for more cars now.

This is a workaround to the auto stop. It's easier to just tap the brakes right before you come to a complete stop, the engine won't turn off. You can also drive it into a pole, off a cliff, into a lake. These too will cause the auto stop not to work. I think we are all looking to turn it off in the settings so we can normally drive the car without auto stop kicking in.
Blessed day I’ve followed the tutorial exactly how he said and it work exactly like he said it would. Thank you so much I like the auto stop not engaging I’m not a fan of the auto stop at all and I didn’t know how to turn it off until I watch this so thanks Mr. sorry I didn’t catch your name

GREAT video - thanks!
Thanks so much. I was also concerned about effect on engine and starter as I noticed others were concerned
So you are telling the vehicle to auto stop when transmission searches for 9th gear? Will this cause transmission issues later?
Joe Tee the vehicle shifts the same way but auto stop will not engage at all.
Probably
This is a workaround to the auto stop. It's easier to just tap the brakes right before you come to a complete stop, the engine won't turn off.
You can also drive it into a pole, off a cliff, into a lake. These too will cause the auto stop not to work.
I think we are all looking to turn it off in the settings so we can normally drive the car without auto stop kicking in.
mine shuts off at 30MPH ugh Hybrid model I was think of a manual switch tapped into the hood sensor
Lol 😂 I hate auto stop 🛑 frfr
🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Good answer
I heard unplugging your hood sensor works im about to try it rightnow lol
Blessed day I’ve followed the tutorial exactly how he said and it work exactly like he said it would. Thank you so much I like the auto stop not engaging I’m not a fan of the auto stop at all and I didn’t know how to turn it off until I watch this so thanks Mr. sorry I didn’t catch your name
You are so welcome
Just bought a used 2019 Traverse last year. I will have to try this, this weekend!
