While everything is upgraded it is also true that it would be significantly less likely to run the battery down with the system off. 5. JPS_Red âą 2 yr. ago. i would think stop start would increase the life of the transmission and engine at the expense of the starter and battery. -3.
3. Engine Not Warm Or Used Frequently. Sometimes the engine will tick while itâs warming up. As the engine gets warmer, the oil gets thinner, making it easier to circulate through the motor. If you arenât driving the car enough or for long enough distances, the oil may never get warm enough to thin out.
However, bad alternator, clogged fuel filter, broken starter, blown fuse, empty gas tank, immobilizer error, or any fault in the electrical system can also cause your vehicle not to start. 1. Weak Battery. If your Malibuâs engine wonât crank or cranks very slowly, then the most likely culprit is a weak or dead 12v battery.
Your Jeep's start-stop function is an automated system that ensures your engine does not spend too much idling. It starts or stops your Jeep's engine depending on the driving conditions. For example, auto stop start will prevent your engine from running when you stop at a red light and start once the coast is clear.
Turn on the engine and allow it to idle. When you start the engine, the thermostat will not allow coolant passage to the radiator because the engine has not heated up. If the thermostat is passing through, you have a stuck open thermostat. If there is no coolant passage at first, and even when the car heats up, you have a stuck close thermostat.
As long as your key is still in your pocket, the start-stop engine button allows users to get in their car and start the engine without inputting the key. This feature allows the driver to simply press a button to start the car. When you reach your destination, you only need to press the button again to shut down.
A loud whirring or grinding noise from the front of the engine. This is caused by the camshaft and valvetrain no longer moving in time with the crankshaft. Lack of normal engine sounds that indicate proper compression (no fast clicking or whooshing air sounds). The battery and electronics work fine, but the engine wonât start up and run.
While the car is running my battery runs around 14.5-14.6 volts (as shown on the console) but during the time the engine shuts off for the auto start/stop function it drops down to 12.5 immediately and eventually as low as 11.5 before the car will kick back on on its own.
A bad timing belt is most likely the culprit when the engine timing is off. A timing belt is a belt that runs between the crankshaft pulley and the camshaft pulley. It is used to synchronize the engine's valves. This causes the engine to run at the correct time and with the correct timing. The engine timing belt is a vital component of the
Apart @hillsons answer, starting the engine frequently consumes a lot of electricity from your battery. The battery wears down much faster when it's often discharged and recharged again. I heard short battery life is a common issue in cars with automatic start/stop fuel saving mechanisms.
