Looking for a fast answer bcs I think my car battery going to die soon. Just want to know if change Perodua Start/Stop battery at outside shop will the Start/Stop function still be able to use? Or recommend to change the battery at Perodua if still want to maintain the Start/Stop function?

outside shop also still Start/Stop able to use, as long as u change back to a Start/Stop battery instead of normal lead acid battery

Function will remain the same.

difference is start/stop battery has higher capacity than normal battery and price is higher as well.

Perodua still uses wet battery and they last longer though.

Car battery condition is also vital.
If charge numerous times already, quality will be suspicious.
Car battery must have the required Cold Crank Amp, CCA to start engine.

disable your auto start stop
then you can use cheap standard battery

I also dont really used it but I am selling the car soon. The new person might want to use/try those functions..

I read some people say if do outside the Start/Stop might not be able to use and need to take to PERODUA to reset the system??

Myvi Gen3 owner here. The start/stop function will stop. Going to Perodua may incur service charge. Cheapest and easiest to re-enable the start/stop after changing the battery just remove the -ve terminal for 1 min and reconnect the terminal back to reset the ECU. Your radio, aircon, central-lock, driver window auto-up/down function will have to reset but its not difficult to do.

I recommend buying the same GS wet battery as from factory. Double the life than MF battery. Just check levels every 2 weeks and top up if necessary. Recommended seller:

The start stop feature will work with any battery. The difference is the n=battery for start stop feature is deep charge type (more expensive), thus it will make battery last longer. Every time I use my car, I just disable but for MyVi you need to disable it every time you start the car because it is momentary switch and car has no memory feature to remember.

You can buy normal battery but the shop told me that if you buy normal one the battery warranty will be cut to half, from 1 year to just 6 month. However, if you disable start stop, it will last like normal car without start stop feature too, I believe; if you don;t mind about warranty though.

I always manually of the start/stop function, thefunction is worst for me

This is not because of battery. If the car is off and battery is removed, all the setting in memory will be lost. Those experience workshop will connect external battery first before removing the bad battery. Some will just keep engine running during battery swap. Some say it is bad for the car but I think no problem. Mine the battery shop just keep engine running and change battery. I decided to use battery for start stop even though I always switch the feature off, since it is not much difference for me.

I don't like it either but somehow I find even if I forgot to switch off the car engine still run. Maybe the car know my habit already

as long as you buy the battery type meant for stop/start ok je, battery shop should know which one is the correct one

Sorry noob abt pero2

Apakah itu pero2 start stop?

Itu Perodua lah

Oh start stop feature. Many car has this not only P2. WHen brake at traffic light engine will stop lo. Release brake engine automatically start again.

Oh itu macam

Jimat minyak tapi bateri kena kuat la

Ni feature bukan pasal jimat minyak. Motif utama ialah pencemaran udara. Europe start introduce.

Start stop function will failed (not functioning) f car ECU detect low CCA during startup

Once u got fresh new battery start stop will resume as normal

Changing battery while engine still running will not reset factory start stop function though

Have to disconnect battery

recently changed to MF battery, the start stop gone. but i am happy as no need to push the damn button everytime

Is there a way to quickly tell if battery needs replacement for car with start stop button?

Buy a second hand battery

Yeah changed mine outside. Still work.

so if I buy m42 battery which is meant for start/stop from outside shop it should work just fine? Bcs I do see comments around like post #19 saying the function is lost after changing the batt?

what brand did you change to?

Mine currently when I start the car the yellow A auto stop symbol will blink few times. From what I search people say this is 1 of the early sign of batt dying???

Not really higher capacity per se, it's using a slightly better battery tech, EFB, but not as good as the AGM batteries used in hybrids.

Outside of cos can buy as long as it M42 EFB type.

To check if the battery is indeed degrading, just ask the battery shop to do a battery test.

Auto start/stop function is the most useless feature of the modern car.

This is what I don't understand, since it's the most useless feature in a modern car, then why are customers still buying vehicles with this feature in the first place ? It's like buying an overpriced model with this feature but then only to turn the feature off later. Wouldn't it be better to buy a Myvi without this feature at all ?

I think if you opt out of this, you don't get ADAS too. Last I remember, ss is available in AV variant jer.

Not only that, but battery killer as well

Just order from shopee battery supplier and fix a date , trade in old battery for extra rebate

Look for 400 CCA and 40mAH M42 battery

I change my battery at Battery Hub just because it was the one near my house open on Sunday. I could not recall the name but it is a Korean battery. No problem and it is almost a year now. No need to reset anything or lost anything. Just make sure the engine is running during the battery change.

I'm not sure about the blinking but I think it is always like that.During start or just power on, it is just self-test routine to check every function is working fine. If one of the light did not go off, then it is fault indication. Logically why need to have the Auto On/Off light blink few times to indicate battery problem when you have battery light indicator which makes more sense to show battery problem?
