hi all,
i've been seeing the new (especially) german cars, have enabled the start/stop engine technology for red lights.
is it really beneficial? i see in some cases the car stops for not even 5 seconds, the engne stops, the light goes green and needs to restart.
how bad is this for the engine?
i see it as a gizmo that in 4-5 years will start having issues and create more hassle than benefits to owners
german manufacturing have proven many times to push technologies on production cars that are not fully controlled only to fix/remove them on futuregenerations/models.
for anyne that has driven such models, do you see any lag, for restarting? if you want to unch it as soon as the light goes green?
what do you think?
