Hi William & welcome to the forum from another scottish member. I have only had my X1 xdrive 18d for 11 days. The stop/start system can indeed be switched off via a button on the centre console. There are also various situations when the system will not work. The main one being if outside temperature is 3° C or below. With the recent weather in scotland it hasn't activated at all on my car!
The car goes well & it is hard to tell the difference in power output of the 18d engine with the 20d. Only concern with car is with the tyres. You may have read the other threads on this matter.
