Booth11 Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Hahah ok it's my all time 2nd best mod, after the pedal box I have got. Maybe I need to switch it off to remind myself how lame the accelerator pedal is in standard mode! Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkIt's worth switching off for 5 mins every now and then, just to remember the woeful factory initial pedal response. Driving through treacle is the best analogy I've heard.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R-eddie Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Surely all this can be avoided by just leaving it in 'Race'..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickR Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Unless I've misunderstood, leaving in race does not switch off stop/start.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does the throttle response & stop start. Nothing to do with the mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark@sasmobile Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 On 2017-6-22 at 19:16, DUB R4XX said: Another option for everyone on here that doesn't involve using vcds obd or unplugging anything is getting your car secured with an Autowatch Ghost and this can make your start stop button default as off instead of on and has the added bonus of making your car more secure even if your keys are taken. It's just a bonus and not the only reason for getting one Just to let you know we can enable this feature at the time of an Autowatch Ghost Installation to override the SS. It will always be turned off unless you turn it on manually. Customers seem to love it as much as the Ghost it's self!

Myc Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 I am definitely gonna try this on my non fl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo9 Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 Last week I unplugged the guilty connector on the battery as advised and haven't had a stop-restart incident since. But then I am pre-FL by a few months (Dec '16 build). Excellent mod, as I was always forgetting to manually disable the "feature" at start-up.

Portista12 Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Hi, I have just purchased a golf and I am struggling to disconnect the plug from the battery terminal. I am worried about pulling to hard and breaking it. Is there a trick to disconnecting the plug? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robuk Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 Hi, I know this is an old thread but has anyone checked the charge voltage while driving car with sensor disconnected, especially on over run down a hill. Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
