Second that.
My Insight will shut the engine off when stopped (Auto-Stop) but restarts within 20 seconds or so, where it should last much longer.
I used to key off at the lights to prolong the autostop.
My new UG now shows the real reason why the engine restarts: the voltage drops below 11.6 volt, and continues to drop if I keep the engine off for too long (with lights and radio on)...
