To deactivate the start and stop function, you will first need a VAG cable (perform the entire operation with the ignition on). After connecting it, launch the relevant application, preferably in Italian: click on "options", then on "check" and ensure that the three options "K1", "K2", and "CAN" are marked as "correct". If not, exit and check again.

At this point, click on save: you are ready to code.

Select the option for the control unit, go to option 19 "Gateway", then enter "Adaptation 10". Scroll down the menu to the option "Start and stop starting voltage limit" and delete the current value of 7.6, entering the value 12.
