    I’ve recently had ghost installed and now if I leave the stop start turned on, as soon as I stop within 3 seconds the immobiliser kicks in causing the signature errors to kick up on the dash, which then in turn means I have to cycle the ignition 3 times to clear the errors, and then enter my code to get the car started. For now I can turn stop start off, as long as I don’t forget! Has anyone else experienced this issue?

    Edit:

    I’d like to add that I’m not criticising the product itself, I believe it has been installed incorrectly. I must admit this is frustrating, I specifically contacted AutoWatch to find an authorised dealer close to me, read reviews for the company I chose to do the work, all seemed to check out. However during the installation the technician seemed to struggle with the install. I wasn’t particularly comfortable letting someone I didn’t know work on the car in the first place, after this I’m reluctant to let them back near it.

    It’s not working correctly, probably down to not being installed correctly.

    Stop start works in perfect harmony with the AW Ghost.

    I would agree, sounds like a call to the installer.

    I’ve had mine in for nearly a year. Without issue.

    After lots of research christopher Ian Preston came highly recommended. If autowatch will cover the cost for the problems with the install might be worth going to him.

    Sounds like a dodgy install.

    Get it sorted by Chris Preston, I wouldn’t trust anyone else TBH. Details in this thread:
