Correct, I do NOT have the block heater. Thanks for reminding me!

Also, I will say that I have seen AutoStop occur once in the past several weeks -- even after the car is fully warmed up. Is this a topic for a new thread?

Topic for a new thread, man. Are you driving the car long enough and keeping the cabin temp warm enough to get the IMA batteries warm so AutoStop can occur? The car not only has to be warmed up but the IMA batteries have to be warm enough also. I have another new thread ready but need to stop driving all day to create it (I was at 50% battery charge one minute and 10 minutes later of normal driving up and down hills I was down to 1 block of IMA charge - egads! - new thread coming about that though).
