Omg, this such a life saver! My car was stopping, stalling, and just plain turned off at a stop/stop light saying my battery was on auto saver but yet had the battery and alternator checked, and all was good, yet it kept acting up all last week and this morning. I was so bummed and embarrassed when it stopped, I found this video about 7-8 months ago and tried what was instructed on the video because i hate this feature that chevy has added to this model and im sure other models too. Anyhoo, I didn't worry about it so much until this morning when my car went out, yet the battery is good. Well, I finally put this advice to work today and no stalling, no automatic shut off, turn on (I hate), no shutting down completely at a stop, I'm absolutely happy, chevy wanted to charge me $180.00 for a diagnostic test and to change my battery with installation would have costed $220.00. I will run this for now on in this mode and give an update in a week 🎉🌸

Kudos for a very good direct-and-to-the-point presentation of the "fix." I recently bought a 2019 Chevy Equinox with the 6-speed and simply put it in "L," set it to "L-6" with the little "+" sign, then drive away. I also talked to the shop manager at the dealership where I bought the Equinox and he assured me that it would not harm the vehicle at all and that it also would not affect the extended bumper-to-bumper warranty I bought. Badda bing, badda boom!

If you're uncomfortable doing this, there is a very easy way to defeat auto stop while driving. Simply pump the brake pedal lightly when you are approaching a stop. The computer will think you are in stop and go traffic and will not engage auto stop/start. One or two pumps and you don't even have to lift your foot from the brake pedal. It becomes second nature after a bit. Our Chevy salesman showed me this trick when we picked up our 2017 Cruze.
@tjpont2149
3 жыл бұрын
This is pretty much what i have always done. But basically just ease on the brake and never push completely down. But if the auto stop does engage i lift off the break slightly til it disengages but car doesn't move. When light changes or its time to go i move effortlessly. But Chevy should just put a button like most other vehicle if they insist on having it equipped.

This is a workaround to the auto stop. It's easier to just tap the brakes right before you come to a complete stop, the engine won't turn off. You can also drive it into a pole, off a cliff, into a lake. These too will cause the auto stop not to work. I think we are all looking to turn it off in the settings so we can normally drive the car without auto stop kicking in.

I can't even do that sometimes, i'm not even fully off the brake yet and the auto stop comes on it's so frustrating 🥲

This is fine as it works in neutral as well, but this is my wife's 2015 Malibu LS. It needs to be simple like a single ground input into the PCM. As an ASE Master Tech since retired, working on GM's is easy with global architecture. My dealer buddies retired or quit the dealer after management was placed under probation with funny money and selling out of state. 7+ teach for ACDelco and holding seminars, my "Stand-Alone" CD's I loaded in my laptop go to 2004 then stops. Trucks currently have a button to cancel. I will keep looking until I walk into a dealer's shop cold and see if an unused cavity in the schematic at the PCM needs a wire to ground signal.

I read Automakers are beginning to shy away from auto/stop because of so many issues. Their EPA projected gas mileage numbers were far from accurate using the auto stop. My 2018 Rav4 Hybrid MPG was lower than any Toyota I've ever owned. It was out 2nd (Garage, only Sunday) SUV. Glad I leased it and it went back after 3 years. I had 2 previous Avalons, and a current Sienna without auto/stop. The Avalons never got below 22mpg in the city and always 35 on the highway. The Sienna usually gets around 20 in the city. 18 was factory. The new Equinox has a button on the console to simply turn it off.

Auto Stop??!! What a brilliant over-enginerring breakthrough!!! You’re going to spend just as much money trying to “save” on fuel, for new or remanufactured starters very often, as the auto stop feature stops the vehicle, and the starter has to start it, much more often, shortening its lifespan significantly. That doesn’t include the costs of shop labor, for the mechanic to installing them. The slightest movement from your foot off the brake pedal, triggers the starter to start the engine again.

Thank you! Really needed this fix! It has auto stopped and not started twice now on my wife at a busy stoplight with a battery not even a year old and plenty of oil. Could really put people in dangerous situations. Im sure this function is good for other things but I’d suggest turning it off if that’s a worry for you, especially in colder climates (ours happened both times in the fall when it suddenly gets cold out). Not sure if that has anything to do with it that’s just the same time it occurred. If anyone has any other suggestions as to why it may have happened pls lmk kindly :)

For the folks concerned that auto stop will wear out your starter quicker just google it and you will learn that it does not. The modern starters work differently than the old starters did and most of the wear on a starter brushes does not occur during the crank but in the starter wind down after the engine is running and with an already hot engine this is significantly decreased. Since I do a lot of stop and go driving with a lot of red light time involved I will leave mine active to get every bit of fuel savings I can.

Great question , that is the purpose of L, to control the gears manually, driving up mountains you want to set it for 3 maybe, that will tell the vehicle to only use the first 3 gears ( which are the strongest gears) but since here we are setting the highest gear, the vehicle uses all of them as normal
@MrCastroFPS
3 жыл бұрын
That is correct, but to be more specific, it allows you to manually SET the highest gear allowed to use. For example, if I set it on two while pulling something uphill, the vehicle will only use first and second gear. So if you set it to the highest gear your car have, it will shift all gears as normal

Do you have to put your car in L9 gear each time you start your car and use L vs D while driving? or is this a one-time thing (my apologies if you addressed this in your tutorial, I'm just not 100% on that) I just purchased a 2020 Traverse I noticed I'm using close to what I did (in fuel) as I did with my Tahoe. I'm hoping this will help. Auto stop is a little annoying when you drive SoCal traffic. Thanks!

Margom562 M you just have to do it when you start driving, it gives u almost the same gas mileage cause the Tahoe turned into 4 cylinders and V8 when it needed, the traverse is running on 6 cylinders all the time
