I figured out how on my L405 and I am sure it will work on yours.
After months of HATING the system and having several close calls because of the system. I was determined to bypass it.
After doing lots of research on it, I finally talked to someone at JLR and told me it could be done but he couldn't tell me how (liability reasons)
Now for months I had been typing "Disable LAND ROVER intelligent Stop/start" into google and coming up with no success. It finally dawned on me to type JAGUAR instead of Land Rover into my search query and Voila. SUCCESS.
It seems that Jaguar owners discovered this trick about 2 years ago when the system was first intoduced.
They Intelligent Stop/Start system is linked to a separate smaller battery. On the L405 it is located in the luggage area behind a trim panel. All you have to do is unhook the Negative (-) lead from the battery to disable the system.
For safety sake I covered the whole lead with Electrical tape and wire tied it to the car, so it would not ground out anywhere.
It does not display any warning codes or error messages, it just disables the system.
Hope this helps.
