Any thoughts?

You cannot have the auto start stop shut off, but the dealer can reprogram your start stop button to remember the last state, meaning that if you push the button to shut it off, it will stay off the next time you turn on the car. You can still turn it on by pushing button. I am having my X3 reprogram next week by the dealer. I believe all the 14 X3 have this new progarmming already. |
Yes, it appears that the auto start/stop button remembers what the prior setting was on startup.
