Hey guys
I noticed in my new car (GTS) that there is no start/stop override button any more on the lower centre console, has that been abandoned now or just the option to turn it off ?
Cheers

You cant get the bluemotion TDi140 or bluemotion 1.4 TSi engines in the GTS.

Cool thanks, I've got a 177 so its good to know they didnt bother with it on the GTS, as it never seemed to save any fuel

It can save fuel, but you must not use it all the time cause the start of an engine is the most fuel consuming.
I am using this feature only with very long waiting times at traffic lights where i know the rotation scheme.
