I test drove a Golf DSG and found the stop/start way too quick to engage. Quite often I'd stop at a junction or roundabout and just as I was about to pull away the engine stopped. OK, it did start again really quickly but it was annoying. A 30 second delay before stopping would be more practical - it was stopping after about 5 seconds. How does the A3 with S-Tronic compare and can stop/start be temporarily overridden? My A3 test drive was in an eTron which switched to electric rather than stopped, so I'm a little unsure what to expect come September when I get my A3.
