That's one thing I miss about the 5-speed.
CVT Auto stop requires the car to first travel over 10MPH and then under 5 to come on.

If I make the mistake of lifting my foot while stopped, or are forced to move 50 or so feet and get out of auto stop,.....not able to reach the 10MPH minimum.....
I have to move the key back one click to turn the engine off,
move the CVT to N and work the hand brake. <_<
