You can now say good bye to auto stop

[Blueinterceptor]

Looks like Chevy will give you a 50$ credit to not take the auto stop feature. This is effective on builds of 21 Tahoe suburbans etc from 6/7/21

this is corrected from my believing you could pay to not get the feature.

Looks like It’ll cost you 50$ to delete the auto stop feature from Chevy Tahoes and Suburbans built after 6/7/21.

that's a $50 credit, actually - only the 5.3 and 6.2 are affected at this time, duramax is not affected. Expectation is for it to last through the rest of the 2021 MY. We'll see if it continues for 22.

Oh. I’ll pay them 50$ to delete it from the Tahoe I have now

I didn’t think it was a big deal. But it is annoying

How?

 

[100cars]

General question about this - Isn't this really bad for a turbo (diesel) engine, or does Chevy pump coolant and oil through the turbo when the engine stops?

Why can't they make it as an OTA update for current owners?

 

[Kpwweb]

Still don’t know how to have this done.

Now it comes on new builds.

I’d pay to have it removed from my current Tahoe if possible

 

[Blueinterceptor]

How?

New builds only.

 

[Kpwweb]

Bu

New builds only.

Bummer. I’d pay to have it removed. I believe it only saves 1mpg tops city. Not worth the downsides for me.

No it will not cost you, it’s going to cost them. they’re going to add a $50 in credit towards the purchase of the vehicle. they cannot build them like that anymore because they don’t have enough chips. And it’s only for the 21 models at this time. There is nothing that stated that it would be for the 22s but they said it was gonna be for the 21 new builds at this time due to the shortage so we’ll see what happens.

I don’t mind it, don’t notice it when I test drove. Somebody said that if you put your foot on the break hard enough it will activate it? I must not have had my foot on the break hard enough or something.

Hurray! Mine is being built the week of 6/28, and I didn't want that "feature"!

 

[Blueinterceptor]

They can have my chip for free.
I’ll give them 50$ to take it out.

There must be something I'm missing...

My 2021 Yukon comes with a switch to deactivate the Auto Stop/Start. It's also in the Owner's Manual;

Now I get it!

For those who already have it, if you don't like it, just push the button to turn it off.

PS. I know of some people who have bought an installed modules to disable Auto Stop/Start.

On new builds, because of chip shortages. Gm will pay you 50$ not to take the feature.
I thought you could pay to not get the feature.
And then sarcastically joked that I’d pay gm 50$ to remove the feature permanently
(Not really a joke)

Hear of those, but have not seen one that’s fully compatible with the 21s yet. Idk. Maybe they do have them by now?

I wasn't aware that the chip issue also affected the Auto Start/Stop feature until I saw Chloe_21's report. That's why I didn't understand the original post of paying to get it removed.

The Auto Start/Stop can be a real PITA for those who have never experienced it before. My first experience was with my 2018 Traverse which didn't have the "A" On/Off switch. I live in an area with many stop signs. Most times I didn't want the darn thing to shut down the engine for a 2 second stop. It was really annoying. Then I discovered that if you place the transmission in manual mode and selected the highest gear (9 in the Traverse) it would disable the Auto Stop/Start and shift normally.

GM must have adjusted it better for the 2021s because my Yukon doesn't activate right away when I come to a stop. It seems to take between 3 to 5 seconds before activating. They also added the "A" button to disable the system (finally).

Just read about the stop/start. Should have waiting another month or so...lol.

On my previous ride, I also have the auto stop/start and got a module to be deactivated at all times. Whats out there for the Tahoes?? I know Range from back in 2011 on my SS are they still around and do they disable stop/start??
