auto stop start

[Whistler Guy]

trivia:
when your grenadiers motor auto stops, the rear wiper shuts off.
the interior roof power switch only operates the USB's in the rear seat.

I’ve never noticed. Turning off auto start stop is part of my pre-flight checklist.

I’ve just picked up my grenadier this week and I laughed at your pre-flight checklist comment because that’s exactly what I’ve started to do. 1) switch off ADAS speed warning, 2) switch off auto stop/start, 3) switch on auxiliary headlights. Gives time for the oil to circulate before setting off

what are the auxiliary headlights you are referencing? Its not the offroad lights in the grille?

In the UK and EU they are wired as auxiliary lights, ie they can be used on- road with headlights because they extinguish when the headlights are dipped. This conforms to EU and UK regulations

1) switch off ADAS speed warning, 2) switch off auto stop/start, 3) switch on auxiliary headlights.

a) ADAS doesn't bother me. I lift on the first tick and then accelerate again. So, never more than one tick.
b) in most cars auto stop/start doesn't bother me. I have found the IG more frustrating. For example, windscreen wiper stopping half way across the window when it restarts and doesn't have the auto-detection of movement that my BMW has - i.e. it detects the cars ahead starting to move and auto-restarts before you press the pedal. Plus, the BMW wouldn't stop the engine if the car was on an incline. The IG does.
c) Yes, that's on my list. Aux light button - check.

As well as the cargo area 12v outlet, and the other roof switches; the USBs in the center cubby are wired through the infotainment system, and thus do not follow the PWR switch's power routing
