you mean you “unnecessarily have to push” that button every time you get in the car, along with your start button. Geez, sucks for you. Think of me smiling every time you push that bad boy. #moveAlong

Nice work Mojave! I applaud the creativity and I'd be begging you for one - but I have a 2023 so I don't need it.
If you ever get tired of playing with rockets and want to play more with Land Rovers, give me a shout

Think of me wondering how much time and effort you put into this bypass hack and yet you're still pushing all but one of the other buttons to get the settings you want after starting the car...must suck.

I smile....

Nope - we must be wired different. Most of us on here enjoy working on our cars and making them better. It is incredibly satisfying. When I hear how much time people put into upgrading their sound system or adding new racks, I am not jealous of the result as much as the time they got to spend tinkering. The hunt is greater than the prize. Carpe Diem!

Incredible work, Mojave!

As for the other guy, what a strange hill to die on — arguing why someone else’s tinkering isn’t right for everyone. Speak for yourself. Or better yet, just stop speaking.

[QUOTE=stevemfr;871819]Nice work Mojave! I applaud the creativity and I'd be begging you for one - but I have a 2023 so I don't need it.

What does having a 2023 have to do with not needing a solution to the auto stop start button always defaulting to on? That is a serious question as I have two 2023 Defemders and both had auto start stop defaulted to the on setting every time you start the engine. I did not see anywhere in the PIVI settings where you could change this? On my 110 I disabled auto stop start using the GAP Tool and will be doing the same thing on the 130 as soon as I add a second license to the GAP Tool. I purchased the GAP Tool for many other features it offers disabling auto stop start was just a perk of owning it. Not sure I would have bought it just to do this.

I think Steve was referring not needing the "hardware" switch mentioned above, since he has MY2023 and the GAP Tool Auto Start/Stop works, where previous MY's it doesn't?

Got it. Thanks for the clarification that makes sense. I have it turned off on my MY 2023 and will be leaving it that way. Thanks GAP Diagnostic for those of us who do have it and want it off.

I agree, this was one reason I purchased the GAP tool, the other was enabling Dynamic Mode on P400!
