2010 Yaris Idle Stop Function ? - Toyota Yaris Forums

IMO everytime you have to re-start an engine, you're doing damage to the internals.

doesn't sound like a good idea to me...

(unless of course, the yaris will pre-oil the block before startup)

This has always been my view on it.. iStop might not be as hard, but I think hypermilers are crazy turning their car off at stop lights..

You save $0.0000005 in gas and spend 20 cents on your starter and internals everytime you turn your car on and off.

I could be wrong, but I will continue to spend the fraction of a penny in gas at stop lights.
