As cool as the push button start feature is I have one gripe. When the car is on and engine running sometimes i want to turn the engine off while keeping the radio on. With the keyed system I'd simply turn the key which would shut off the engine and leave the radio on. With the push start/stop, everything goes dead. Is there a way to go from Ignition -> Acc or On whithout having to cycle through Off ?

I understand that some cars will go from Ign-> Acc if you press the brake while pushing the button.

dont put car on park, leave it on drive, press the start/stop button and car wont completely shut off, it will stay on "accessory on"


then just simply put car back on d once you have press the start/stop button and it will still be on "acc on"

Put the car in N and push the start/stop button, then switch to P.

it doesnt say anything about pushing the start/stop button with the car in drive or neutral to stay in the accessory mode on any of thoes pages....

Ha! Stumbled across on how to do this on cars with manual transmissions... Make sure that handsfree link is up (i.e. on a call via bluetooth) and then hit the start/stop button... car goes into accessory mode without turning off!
