Auto Start/Stop question.

My 35d is due to have the winter tires put on and per my request have a 1st oil change (7,500 Km). Now I have also requested to have the auto start/stop reprogrammed/coded to stay on at the last setting as I really do not like it for the time being.

Now to my surprise the BMW dealer (the biggest and main importer in Switzerland tells me that all they can do is to have it totally deactivated - basically it's on or off, no in between.

I have read about people having it set to where, upon starting the car, it will automatically be to the last setting when the car was shut off.

What am I to tell them? Should I argue? Are there any service bulletins I could show them (without upsetting them ) Am I wrong and them right?

Thanks for any help!
