hello guy ,,, because of traffic in my town i use to drive and stop continuously, so i accelerate and stop , so the engine turn on - off continuously and i don't want this feature because i feel it will damage the IMA , so i need a way to disable this mode ! best regards
my car is Honda CR-Z 2011 EX :nerd:
No worry about IMA damage--That's actually a good feature, and you will get accustomed to it. Most people want to find the best techniques to activate the auto stop more often. You can turn on the defrost and set it in sport mode to make it less active, however. For myself, I think its better that it shuts engine down at stop lights (engine not running = engine not overheating, and you save fuel.)
 
as i felt ,, the car hasn't a dc starter like athe old cars ,, the electrical motor " Hybrid" is the main starter , no self-starter
Hey, thanks for finding that picture Supersmadi, I was doing a search for a cut-away of the engine for the CRZ, and never did find one.
