I understand that the 2019 Forester will have start/stop engine technology ( God help us). I was wondering if anyone knows if it can be deactivated.
Thanks for any info you can provide.

Looking at the instructions above, I guess you can technically disable it if you don't wear your seat belt, but that isn't a good tradeoff.

Otherwise, you can learn to press the Auto start/stop disable everytime you start the car.

Otherwise, you can train yourself to press lightly on the brake instead of all the way down.
