I also have a Volvo, and turn it off because it also activates the brakes. This becomes a problem in car washes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wheels would simply lock-up and the car wash’s rollers would keep riding under my wheels. To solve the problem, I turn off the automatic engine shut off which I can with my Volvo. It did take me a few times with this happening for me to figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After only putting a few thousand miles on my car last year, my 2019 Volvo has very low miles. It is like new. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2020 CRV is such a nice vehicle. I see them all over. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starter has to engage much more often so at least those components will age quicker 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom56 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Most corps are staying in one location for the month of July. They will only be on the road for a couple of weeks. As a result, gas prices will be a significantly lower part of the corps budget this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
