To switch off the i-stop function, you can simply turn on the light (manually), even the "position lights." I discovered it myself while I was trying to block that stupid function to work.

[@mursie100]

1- You're speaking too fast 2- I don't get it? What am I supposed to do? freeze to avoid clicking a button?

[@savydaniel]

Yep, pretty much. Useless "advice".

[@indoctum_iuga_ferre]

@@savydaniel It is not even true. I always have the AC at the lowest temperature, which is 15ºC. 365 days. And, as it should be, the i-stop is always active.

[@bubbajones6907]

@@indoctum_iuga_ferre I've never used this menu in my 2015 Mazda CX-5, but I've noticed i-stop usually doesn't stop the engine when I have the air conditioner on.

[@savydaniel]

@@indoctum_iuga_ferreI disconnected the switch from the bonnet, last year. No warning in the dashboard, no i-stop since then. In high-traffic areas, i-stop should always be off.

[@michaelmcleary8566]

So to summarise, to switch off i-stop function, intelligent people should use the 'off' switch; all others should spend several moments faffing about with the air con unit!

[@frankfiocco8004]

Have 2016 Mazda 3. i-stop will automatically stay/turn off when A/C is on or if thermo fan kicks in on hot day. Or press the button.

[@T2HeadedEagle]

“All you gotta do is switch off the AC, don’t worry you don’t gotta switch off the AC”. Is this guy for real??

[@WhenHannMeetsCars]

Yes because theoretically one of it criteria to turning off i-stop permanently is to switch off the AC, but its impossible to drive without AC here in my country, so I’ve found a solution that turns off I-stop without switching off the AC - that is reducing the AC temps to its lowest 👍🏻

No I think what he means is. When he said turn it off I think he meant turn it down. In these replies he says aircon is good Istop permanently disabled. 🤪🇦🇺

[@venomancer711]

Added benefit of switching off i-stop is longer battery life if you always drive in town at the cost of fuel. In an hour jam you can get a few extra kms of range with i-stop which adds up over time. For example my cx3 with 28k milage has about 800km extra range from the istop at the cost of a new varta battery for rm800 inc labour from mazda. 800km at 2.05 per liter is rm 1,640 saved minus the battery is rm840 saved which can be used for the ocassional ron100 fill up as we all know skyactiv engines on high octane petrol really does go zoom zoom . i-stop on > i-stop off jk :D

[@hastuart9639]

Nonsense. my car is almost 10 years old, I use the I-stop all the time and I am still on the same battery from new and its a diesel so takes more to start. If I-stop was going to be a problem to cars then we would hear of more battery and starter motor failures, but we don't. There is more damege to batteries caused by people allowing them to go flat especially when we were in lockdown when a car wasn't used and no trickle charger used. The new chargers actually regenerate the battery and once fully charge give an internmittent trickle . Stop start has no effect on the battery, especially batteries that are designed for stop start and high current charging, but then fit a cheap battery on the car and expect trouble. When I first started driving batteries lasted about 3-5 years, but 10 years from a battery now on stop start cannot have done it any harm. This is an urban myth generated by people who are too lazy to secure the car correctly at traffic lights or other stops by - Handbrake - Neutral. Feet off the pedals.

[@neil1997]

Heavy discharge (ie from a starter motor) does no harm to car batteries. High ambient temperatures and sufonation (generally through infrequent) use kills them

In a stop and go scenario if you don’t fully depress the brake istop doesn’t activate either. I can always control when it turns on by adjusting my breaking force when stopped on the lights. Light press - no istop, harder - istop switches on. Easy as that.

If you are stopped. Hand brake on, change into Neutral engine goes off, as soon as you depress the clutch to engage first , the engine starts. Why leave the engine running with your foot on the brake, you are not in control of the car. If somebody hits you from behind, your foot will come off the brake and you hit the person in front of you, judging how close people stop behind the car in front.

[@neil1997]

Yeah it's a fair point mate, but the intent here is to not trigger the stop/start. Would be interested to see someone test the braking force of just the handbrake (2x rear brakes) Vs 'light' footpedal pressure (all 4) ​@@hastuart9639
