Question about starters and fuel

[Raul-02]

You think you're burning expensive fuel....buying one starter will burn up all the savings you could ever make not burning fuel.

that's been my thinking. Fuel is more easily replaceable. Putting a new starter will be work.

Plus, new starters cost a lot and it takes a lot of work to buy them. Worse if your teeth get bad on your flywheel. Then you have to split the machine, but you saved $13.82 on fuel this year.

If you dislike that feature, you can cancel it with the push of a button.

But, you have to push that da**ed button every time you start the vehicle.

Glad I don't own anything that new.

you should be able to disable it in the settings or have your mechanic do it or the dealer before you take delivery.

F150 I had, push button every time. Irritating.

BMW X5 just one time.

I wasn’t a fan of that feature.


Tesla, well It never starts, so there is that i suppose.



Tractor, I’m in the 5 minute camp with the L6060, DPF loads pretty quick sitting and idling.

The B2710 I’ll let idle longer, little Gen/Alt isn’t the strongest and battery will start getting lower on charge. I’ve replaced starter, alternator and regulator on that darn thing in the past year.

My BMW and Jeep are just one time.
Correction-its every time you start the vehicle, but it stays disabled the entire trip.

My wifes Jeep it's every time you start it. And no place in settings to disable it.

I have to wonder how long the starter will last.
