Turn engine off when leaving car

[andybanksuk]

When I first got my C7 in September, it had a feature that would shut the engine off and turn the ignition off when I opened the driver's door to leave the car.

Now it no longer does that and I can't see a setting for it.

Am i imagining this and have I gone mad? Or is there a setting somewhere.

Think you have to push the stop button first? I leave mine running if frosty so obviously i get out lock it and leave it running to warm up. Not heard of this before? Could be a setting in the car menu?

I think your issue was explained in the A6/C7 tips and tricks section in the oppsite way:

"10. Disabling engine stop when opening driver's door.
Recode the Central Convenience module to STOP the engine from turning off when you get out, having moved the car.

Click on the red byte (below) and in the binary code you will see: 00000111
Change it to: 00001111
ie. with 1111 at the end not 111

Tab into the next bit box and you will see the code change to 0F (013F062220B90000832009042001040700000000000000000000000 00000 to 013B062220B90000832009042001040F00000000000000000000000 00000)

So maybe you have to reverse this setting with a VCDS.
