Stop/Start vcds question

I did the coding to remember previous setting as to if the button was on or off.

It worked for a few days but weirdly now its back to me having to press it evertime I start the car to turn it off.

I followed this coding;

Select]
[09-Cent. Elect.]
[Security Access - 16] (enter security code - 20113)
[Adaptation - 10]
Select Channel 34 and Read
if you subtract 4 from the original value --> Start&Stop always disabled
if you add 32 to the original value --> memorize last status (the Start & Stop status at engine startup will be the one at last engine shutdown)
if you add 64 to the original value --> Start & Stop button light will be reversed: off if Start & Stop is disabled, and on if Start & Stop is enabled.
Press Test then press Save

Has anyone else had this? Should I try and code it again?

It seems, that there are at least two MMI internal software versions are exists, some of them accepts the "reverse the swicth" option, some of them the "remember the last selection".

For me the last one works, the other one behaved as you mentioned. It seems, that you can select the other one.

Cheers for the reply, I think I will try the other coding then, just found it odd it seemed to work for a day or so before going back to normal.

I managed to disable mine permanently ( Thank the lord-I hate it). I followed a similar post but it didn't work initially, jt just changed the way the light works on the switch. Keep trying, I did and managed eventually.

Mine has the "reverse the coding" I think - basically the car starts and it is disabled but I did not have the LED function reversed (so start / stop OFF - the new default - the LED is on). You can reverse the LED function as well which would prevent the slightly annoying LED being on all the time but I quickly got used to that.

Splash set it up for me ages ago and it is brilliant.

We just followed the instructions on the VCDS tips and trick thread and it worked. The piste was well marked, and my mental maths just about coped without resorting to our combined fingers and toes. If you decide you do want the light reversed we'll have to call in the cavalry...

Weirdly mine has decided tonight to start working again without me doing anything! Its back to "remembering last setting", which is off as I am not a fan of stop/start!

Another way to disable stop/start with vcds, open module 10 - park/steer assist, followed by security access, enter the code given by vcds, click adaption, then click the channel tab, scroll down to deactivation of stop start function, then activate it.

Same for turning it back on (if you decide you want it back) except you would select activation of stop start function.
