Auto Idle Stop has stopped working?
Just bought a new 2019 RDX 3 months ago and it appears that my auto idle stop is no longer activating. I don't miss it but is this a signal that something is wrong with the car now?

If there are no other error messages coming up on the display and everything else seems to be working, I would be thanking the Acura Gods that your auto stop is not working and go out and buy a lottery ticket.

I have given the automatic parking brake, auto idle stop, and auto brake stop a good old college try, and have rejected them all. IMO, none of them works as well, let alone better, than doing it myself, and all of them have troublesome problems.

Auto brake stop = CMBS? If so, does it mean you deactivate it? I like the warning, although it's a bit conservative.
I have not tried automatic parking brake. What did you not like about it?

No, CMBS is not auto brake.
there is a button on the lower left panel that activates auto brake hold. When activated, at a traffic stop, you can take your foot off the brake and it will hold until you step on the gas.

I'd like to disable it permanently but it always defaults to on. But if it stopped working altogether, it means something is broke and I'd want it fixed. It's the principle of the thing. I don't think the gas savings is worth the wear and tear on the starter and engine. If I forget to disable it as soon as I get in the car, I'm reminded the first time I stop at a light. On mine, the engine restarts if I'm sitting at a light more than about 30 seconds.
