    Fuel savings with auto stop/start system

    I am interested to see if anyone has tested out how much farther they are able to travel on a tank of fuel with the auto stop/start system on vs off for a whole tank at a time. Although there are fuel savings to be had, it has its quirks with regards to responsiveness in stop/start traffic (yes I have been following the other stop/start thread).

    If anyone is also curious/happy to do this experiment while outlining their usual driving style/traffic, it would really help in determining if this system is as effective in real life.

    Therefore those who are less reluctant to use the auto stop/start system can say I'm happy to forgo xxkm/tank or xxL/100km, especially if the difference is not that great.
    I would do this experiment myself but I'm 4 months away from having my car delivered!
