Accessory-off delay (after shutting off engine)?

[6mtJak]

Hey All -
Is there no option for accessory off delay? As in when you turn off the engine but the radio continues to play until it times out (like 20m) or you open your door.

Not that I know of for the 6MT. There’s nothing in the user manual or online. I believe I saw something for the CVT model. I guess you could always trade it in for one.

All jokes aside, maybe a third party releases a module to address this. It would be very helpful and convenient.

For all the awesome tech in this car there are some weird omissions

Like a remote starter on the 6MT model for those of us who park in Neutral with the parking brake on? Still a little bitter.

For sure....I hadn't thought of the radio off delay, but that's another one that I'm guessing would have cost very little!

Nooo I fucking hate that feature. So glad it doesn't exist. You know what would be better, give us a normal key so we can choose what we want to do with our shit. Push start doesn't work half the time anyway.

How often have you had push start fail on you?

Maybe one out of every three tries it doesn't go on the first push. It could be that the clutch wasn't all the way in or I didn't hold it long enough, but the resultant beeping and treating you like an idiot is not what anyone wants out of a car.

That doesn't seem right. Out of many pts cars I've owned I've only had an issue when the clutch release sensor (top clutch sensor not lower depression sensor) was bad from wear. In this car it starts every time so far.

Could it be a bad sensor?

I'm pretty sure I'm just ham-handing it. When you're slow and deliberate it works as it should, but if you're trying to hurry it slaps you down and reminds you who's in charge. Never had this in any keyed vehicle. I'm not the only one who finds this thing picky.

This car is a little different than other manuals I've had. It's not that you have to hold the push start down for awhile but rather need to have the clutch fully depressed down until the cluster completes the start up needle sweep as it settles into idle. You're probably releasing the clutch too quickly after startup, I don't think it's the push button.

You have to shut the car off and leave your finger on the button to push it again if you want it to be in aux mode.
