Auto start stop does not use the car starter so having it on will not have any affect on the life of the starter motor. It is actually an interesting read in how the start/stop technology works. Before the engine shuts off it primes one cylinder by adding fuel and air and compressing it so when you let go of the brake the spark ignites which sets that cylinder off and restarts the engine instantly without the starter motor. This is the same way hybrid motors are able to switch the gasoline engines on and off so quickly.

Thanks to Carly or BimmerCode this automatic AC start up was "TERMINATED" and I was able to enjoy my kick M Sport 5 series again!
