I tried turning it off, once I shut the engine down and back up, it comes back. I'm trying to figure it out, meanwhile no luck.

I would like this as an app or a guide so i can longcode it at least. Anybody know where to look?

VW Removed the old ways to turn off Stop/Start Not sure if you motor has a stop start button if it does then fit a memory module otherwise VW Have stopped that method.
Currently the only way I have seen is turn it off each time you start you motor.

I have a Cupra Formentor 2000 DSG7 4 Drive and I live in Rome Italy where there is a traffic light every 200 meters Please make an APP to shut OFF definitively, or otherwise to make it to maintain last memory position, to avoid that at every start of engine The Start & Stop function come back to stress the engine. I'll be very grateful to you for this

Gentlemen: - any hope of disabling Start Stop on these latest vehicles using coding is futile at best. It just ain't possible using OBD11 (either manually, or via an App).
The ONLY solution is to use a physical SS auto-kill device that is installed across the native SS OFF/ON switch. And even this solution isn't possible if the car has "gesture switches"

Hi now that the SFD has been unlocked, there is any chance to have an APP to put Start, & Stop in the last position ? I see that there is a lot of Formentor owner waiting for it. We will be very gratefull . Thankyou

Read the post above and you will see currently nobody knows a work around.
The old method dont work.
You cant fit a stop start memory module as you dont have physical switches.

Quick update on this formentor-forum.de/forum/thread/810-start-stopp-anderer-ansatz/?postID=23698#post23698Translated below HA! Yippee! :cool: Found the pin, start-stop can be switched via it. The displayed virtual slide switch then also moves back and forth. The pin is called T73c/60, the button switches to ground. Short instructions for retrofitting the start-stop push-button: (without guarantee etc., whoever breaks something is to blame) - Get "repair cable" with plug contact for the T73c on the j519 (is unreasonably expensive, should be available from a normal VAG dealer). - Remove the lower panels in the driver's footwell. - Remove the side panel (towards the door). - Disconnect the battery (absolutely!). - Remove the plug from the vehicle electrical system control unit, which can be easily seen and reached through the side opening, which is located at the rear in the direction of travel, i.e. the one closest to you. To do this, press the small catch and flip the large white lever. Carefully pull off the connector. - Remove the cable tie at the end of the plug. - Slightly prise open two catches on the side so that the inner, yellow part of the plug can be pulled out. This is very easy. - Locate pin 60 using the connector labelling and click the repair cable into place. - Reassemble the connector and plug it in. The white lever must snap back into place! - Mount a push-button somewhere that connects this wire to earth. - An indicator LED could probably be connected to T73c/51, but I haven't checked. - Reconnect the battery. - Don't be irritated by the 100 or so error messages. After driving 100m, they were all gone. - In control unit 09 (Central Electric) - adjust "Button 1" to start-stop (in the mass of values somewhere below the middle). - Immediately below, set the "Button 1 indicator light" to "not installed". - Switch off everything, wait for the bus to rest (20 minutes). Done! And now, if you like, you can connect an automatic switch-off module to the new push-button (or do just that and leave out the push-button). To be on the safe side, I would like to point out that this is probably not allowed, as it has been discussed often enough. However, I think (!) that retrofitting a physical push-button that already exists in virtual form should not cause any legal problems. Have fun!

Instead of doing the above which seems very complicated, time consuming and risky, I rather wait a bit longer until someone cracks this thing, like everything else, it’s a matter of time and interest from developers to do that or skip it.
Until then, manually deactivating the useless function as soon as the ignition is on, it’s like a routine now. Cheers.

The easiest way to turn off the SS is to disconnect this small cable at bettery. I will add that disconnecting this plug does not only disable the StartStop system, it is a side effect. By disconnecting the plug, we disconnect the J367 battery management module, and if it does not work, the start stop system does not work either. However, we lose information about the condition of the battery, how much is charged and how much is discharged. The battery itself will charge, perhaps better, without any eco features or whatever the developers had to implement to reduce the carbon footprint.

Will this also work on a Plugin hybrid please?

How can we be sure that it won't cause problems and that the battery will charge normally?

By disconnecting the J367 battery management module the alternator always loads to the maximum and its clutch will never be disconnected, obviously you will notice a fuel consumption, it's like always running with the air conditioning compressor on!
I would also add that always charging a battery to the maximum, when already charged, will ruin it prematurely.

Is there any danger of causing damage to the car by disconnecting this wire ? Thanks
