Booking
Auto Start/Stop configuration on supported vehicles — turn the engine shut-off behaviour off (or back on) as an electronic configuration change through the modules your vehicle already has. No hardware modification. Compatibility varies by year, make and model, and I verify it before you spend a dollar.
Auto Start/Stop shuts the engine off at stops and restarts it when you release the brake. On supported vehicles that behaviour can be configured — turned off, restored, or reset when it isn't behaving properly.
This is an electronic configuration change through the modules your vehicle already has. No hardware modifications, no bypass modules, no aftermarket parts.
What this addresses
- The engine keeps shutting off at every stop and you'd rather it didn't
- Start/stop stopped working entirely or works intermittently
- A start/stop warning message you want explained
- The restart feels rough or hesitant after an auto-stop
Compatibility
Not every vehicle allows start/stop to be changed — support depends on year, make and model. I verify yours before booking and tell you before you spend anything if it isn't available.
How mobile service works
- 1Tell me your year, make, model, engine — and what your car is doing (or what feature you want changed).
- 2I verify your vehicle and confirm the service is supported before you spend anything — compatibility varies by year, make and model.
- 3I confirm the price with you before I head out. Prices are starting prices; a travel fee applies beyond 10 miles.
- 4I come to you — your home, your office, your driveway. No waiting room, no dealership lane.
- 5I work with professional equipment, explain what I find in plain English, and deliver — a diagnostic report, a reset, a feature unlocked.
Common questions
Can you disable it on any car?
No. Some vehicles allow the change electronically, others don't. That's exactly why I verify your vehicle before quoting.
Is it safe?
Where a supported procedure exists, it's a configuration change managed through the vehicle's own systems, and reversible where supported. I'll explain what changed.
Does it affect my warranty?
I can't speak for any manufacturer's warranty terms. The change is electronic and reversible where supported — ask your dealer about your specific vehicle.
My start/stop light is on — is that a diagnostic?
Usually yes, since a warning means a stored fault. I read it, explain it, and advise whether a reset or repair is the right next step.

Prices are starting prices, not guarantees. Final pricing can depend on vehicle, location, diagnostic complexity and requested procedure. This is an electronic diagnostics, coding and reset service — not mechanical repair. Diagnostics identify electronic faults but do not guarantee that a specific mechanical repair will resolve a problem. No dealership or manufacturer affiliation.
