    I don't think the V6 in the B7 has Start Stop.

    And if it does, it's not hard to disable.

    No the r36 doesn't have start-stop, sorry those two points I mentioned in my last post were about the A4.

    I've officially joined the R36 Club!
    After much searching (not only for Passats, couple of other VAG on the list too) an R36 wagon came up for sale over the weekend, original owner, all documentation, completely stock. Just simply a clean and honest example. I was so impressed with the condition it was one of those 'shut up and take my money' scenarios Lol.

    Such a beautiful car to drive. What a machine!

    Quick thank you to
