How to disable the Audi A1's start-stop system?

The start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle is idle, saving fuel. However, it can be frustrating for some drivers. Is there a way to disable it in the Audi A1?

To disable the start-stop system in the Audi A1, press the button next to the transmission selector. This will turn off the system temporarily until you turn off the ignition.

You can permanently disable the start-stop system in your Audi A1 by coding it out using a specialized diagnostic tool. This will require technical knowledge and may void your warranty, so proceed with caution.

If you want to keep the start-stop system on, but don't want it to engage every time you stop at a red light, you can adjust the settings in your vehicle's infotainment system.
