I took my car in for annual service (11k miles) today and asked to have the ASS (Auto Start Stop) set to remember the last setting. I had anticipated and been told to expect the car to be ready in 1.5 to 2 hours for the regular service.

The SA told me that the programing would require most of the day to complete as they had to contact BMW for "authorization". She also said that there would be no charge -- but if I wanted the programing reversed, I'd have to pay for that (why would anyone want that?).

I don't think she was trying to dissuade me or make excuses...

Anyway, just a heads up to expect some extra time if you choose to make this adjustment.
