Not trying to start WW3 here, I've read all the opinions regarding using stop / start systems (and disabled it on my MK3 Cupra 280), but has anyone actually seen or heard firsthand, about someone wearing out the startermotor or big-end mainbearings on an engine designed for start / stop?
I'm not talking about the obvious issue of using it after pummeling the turbo hard, then having the stagnant oil fuse with the turbos bearings, but just the ordinary bobbing about town at red lights etc that we probably spend 90% of our time on, where the turbo is nice and cool.
