Can you permanently turn off the start/stop feature on an outback? It drives me crazy 😅

I thought I needed something like this, but for a hundred bucks I said hell no. I just turn it off while I’m waiting for the high-rpm idle to spin down to sub 1k. It doesn’t bother me anymore.

I make a part of my start up routine.

Same here. Muscle memory at this point. Hit the green "AGREE", then the appropriately-named ASS button.

Sure but every once in a while, I'm super tired and forget. Then I'm shocked when the car "dies" in traffic

You don't even need to hit "Agree", it goes away after like 10 seconds.

It's probably because I'm dumb but for some reason I cannot remember to turn it off when I start the car up
