Potential 'Well Duh' bits coming up but: when starting the car after it's scandalously been left a few days,
A) is it reckoned better to disable Strat / Stop and let it tickover a few mins to save battery charge from the starter drawing current from starting again?
B) does the Start / Stop only operate when the car has been running a while and battery charge sufficiently refreshed ?
C) does the car use more current on tickover than it 'makes' to top-up battery ?
I asked a couple of electronic tech geeks pals and surprisingly they didn't know the answers....
