Engine start stop - G60?
Hi
I've an f10 and on the engine start button there's also a button to switch off the auto engine stop start. Can this be done on g60? took one for test drive yesterday and the sales guy didn't know if could be done and the function drove me mad so I'd only buy g60 if this can be switched off? |

ASS is disabled while in sport mode; otherwise it's on all the time and there's no way to override it. Having said that, I thought it would be a real problem, but it's incredibly smooth, quiet and seamless in action. I don't even know it's on. BMW has done an incredible job with this version of ASS.
I really doubt you'd be at all bothered by it after a day or two of driving. |

The only issue I have with Auto Start Stop is that my last ICE I had was a 2018 G-Class, and at longer traffic lights or stopped in traffic, when the engine would cut out...the air conditioning would either go very weak, or actually stopped blowing cold, and would only blow cold when the engine re-started. It was awful in our triple digits.
How does BMW handle this? |

The engine would shut off and start up as needed. I felt really comfortable on the drive there and back. It was nice to feel safe taking my foot off the brake with the Auto Hold. I can’t wait until engine break in is over and take it through its paces. |
