I wonder what his take on dual zone climate control in stop start car, oh wait that would be impossible now wouldn't it and im simply making the word up! :rotfl:
Cue TopDaddy "Ah but not if the heater wasnt on in the first place!! Ha ha. You're an idiot and i'm so really smart."

Why, have you lost track of who to argue with??

not if the heater isnt set to hot before the engine shut down0

But, as advised, and referring to the original question (reminder - 'can I override Start/Stop because I sit with the engine running to keep myself warm'), the heater IS already set to hot. Ready to stand down after 135 posts or do we keep going?...
He'll not stand down. He cant help himself.0 -
I was referring to you, but you seem to have deleted the post before mine that I was replying to? Unfortunately I didn't quote it since I thought that'd be unnecessary.But, as advised, and referring to the original question (reminder - 'can I override Start/Stop because I sit with the engine running to keep myself warm'), the heater IS already set to hot.

Well you have assumed it would be on heat(which is fair) but reread post 32. Mg has even forgotten I think. So I can expect your appology soon?0 -

uh huh.
And as i said back then - the car will restart if it cant keep the cabin at the temperature that the heater was set to OR if you subsequently move the heater setting.
The car will restart if it needs to make any adjustments to temperature that it cant do with the hot / warm / cold water in the heater matrix.
In your precise statement in post #32 you said you are in situations were you would want to keep the car idling for long periods where you would want to have the heater running. Stop Start will deal with that and keep the cabin at the temperature you wish or request. There is no need to switch it off.
This isnt rocket science?
So what would anyone - other than you - need to apologise for? Telling it how it is?
What are you seeing happening that we are not, and why cant you reiterate that to us, rather than this game of dodgeball you're playing here?0 -
