Install takes 5-10 minutes, depending on how easily you can get your hands into the area. Been on for 2 days, auto stop/start hasn’t activated once, and the couple times I’ve used my remote start is still works. Will update in the future with longevity and functionality over time. So far, love it. Update as of Aug 26: Had it on for just under 2 months now. Still works great. Auto stop hasn’t came on once, and remote start works every time, and never any warning lights. Wonderful product and for sure beats out the $150 alternative of getting a tune to do the same thing. Worth every penny. Update as of April 2023, still working great. Auto stop/start still deactivated. No warning lights or hood open warnings. Great buy, definitely recommend! Review: WORKS LIKE A CHARM!!! No more Start-Stop! - Our 2017 Cadillac XT5 has driven us NUTS with the Start-Stop for 3 years! We love the vehicle but have actually considered trading it in as this "Technology" drives us so crazy! There is nothing more terrifying than being in the middle of nowhere in the dark and stopping at a stop sign to have the engine COMPLETELY TURN OFF!! This is neither safe nor smart! My constant fear is that it won't start again and we will be broken down. This start-stop is also apparently very hard on the engine and the battery which we have already had to replace once for $450!! This is a $20 piece that installed easily once we figured out where it went (Thank you YOUTUBE!!!) is a NO-BRAINER to solve this terrible, frustrating problem! BUY THIS PART and drive SMOOTHLY and WITHOUT FEAR! PLUS, Now you won't have to warn your passengers before coming to a stop that this is "normal" for this vehicle to shut off otherwise they panic and think the car just died! 5 STARS!! ## Features - 【Effortless Performance Optimization】QAQBOYS Auto Start Stop Eliminator ensures a seamless driving experience by effortlessly disabling the auto start stop feature in Chevy Equinox Malibu Cruze (≤2018), Cadillac XT4 XT5 XT6 CT6 (≤2018), Buick (≤2018) and GMC Terrian (≤2018).

Works great. Even feels like the car's got more get up while driving and it doesn't pause as long anymore when you break and go. Love love love it. And no more turning the engine off at every little stop in traffic. It'll probably save you replacing a starter also. Because mine started to go at only 43K miles. I had a violent jerking of the wheel after car went to stop mode and started when the steering wheel was in turn position. This is not supposed to happen and a very bad a dangerous thing. NO RECALL or TSM anywhere from Chevy!?! Well this fixes it apparently. Been fixed for over a year now as of this writing, just by adding this auto start stop disabler. Thank God! Because the dealership wanted an arm and a leg just to diagnose, and my local chevy dealer has the WORST customer service ever. Such a headache trying to do anything with them. ## Frequently Bought Together - QAQBOYS Auto Start Stop Disable/Delete/Eliminator/Canceller for Chevy Equinox Malibu Cruze (≤2018), for Cadillac XT4 XT5 XT6 CT6 (≤2018) for Buick (≤2018), Effortless Performance Enhancement - orealtrend Car Mats Replacement for Floor Liners Chevrolet Chevy Cruze 2016-2019 (NOT for 2016 LT Limited) Heavy Duty All Weather Guard Black Front Rear Car Carpet-Custom Fit-Tough/Durable/Odorless --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/329744702-auto-start-stop-disable-delete-eliminator-canceller-for-chevy-equinox](https://www.desertcart.at/products/329744702-auto-start-stop-disable-delete-eliminator-canceller-for-chevy-equinox) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-07-11*
