Nevertheless it's still annoying me so I've asked them to test it on another 2.0D auto because i'm 100% sure the phenomenon didn't occur with my 307 wheels. I've paid 75K for this car and it should be perfect.
If they weren't meant to be used simultaneously than they would set it up that way. The dealer told me that there are 100 different occurrences that had to come together for the auto-stop to engage. I would think that they would set up the software appropriately if they didn't want them to be used together.
