RR L405 MY2019: Unable to turn on Auto Start/Stop

[omkt30]

Dear all,

I have the L405 Range Rover V8 SC MY2019 and I am unable to turn back on the automatic Start/Stop system.
The system is by default turned off and the white Start/Stop Off icon is always displayed in the top right corner of the dashboard.

The Range Rover user guide talks about an activation icon in the vehicle configuration menu on the lower touch screen but there is no such icon there.

Does anyone know how to turn back on the feature from the configuration menus?

Thanks!

first welcome to the forum...

Second, you have to be the first person ever that wants to turn this on and not off. If you really want it on, I would go see the dealership and have them fix it since it is a 2019. Personally I would extremely happy that it doesn't work and enjoy the fact that in the summer your A/C will not shut off and you start getting hot or the fact that if you need to move fast for an emergency the vehicle is always running. You literally gain nothing from having it work. Unless you think saving $100 in fuel over a 10 year period is worth having it work. Ok I may be off, I doubt you will save $100 in 10 years, you will have to replace the battery every 5 years at the cost of $100 or more, so you actually lose money.

Is there a way to turn it off, BTW?

Disconnect the battery sensor on the negative lead of starter battery, example below, it works on my Merc Coupe and my Cayman 981. Try it, if not impressed reconnect sensor.
