How do I turn off the automatic start-stop in my BMW X1?

I find the constant start-stop feature in my BMW X1 to be annoying and inconvenient. Is there a way to turn off this feature permanently?

Yes, there is a way to turn off the automatic start-stop feature in your BMW X1. Simply go to the vehicle settings and select 'Start/Stop' where you can disable the feature. This will prevent the engine from turning off when you come to a stop, providing a smoother driving experience.

In order to turn off the automatic start-stop feature in your BMW X1, press and hold the start-stop button located near the gear shifter for at least 3 seconds. This will deactivate the feature until the next time you start your vehicle.

If you prefer to have the automatic start-stop feature disabled permanently, you can have your dealership change the coding of your vehicle. This will require a software update, but it will ensure that the feature stays off every time you start your car.
