The BMW dealers used to do it but they don't anymore. At least my BMW dealer will not. Can you also turn the ASS off in the economy mode? On my car, if you are in the economy mode even if you have ASS selected to the off mode it automatically turns it on if you select economy mode. I have a US specification 2019 G30 540i sedan.

I had to download the Bimmercode full app ($29) and got the OBDLink MX+ OBD2 Bluetooth Scanner from Amazon (about $80). The Bimmercode website will indicate what OBD2 plug in is required or acceptable; there may be several options. The website also will show you what things you can code on your car. In looking at my app demo mode it looks like you go to Front Electronic Module, then Auto Start Stop function Memory, then check Active to get it to retain the same setting as when you shut down. You can see do that on the Bimmercode website. That may seem expensive for just coding one thing like ASS, but I feel it is useful to have an OBD2 ink that you can use on your iPhone for a number of things, like trouble codes, etc. I plan to recode a couple of things on my wife's 328 at some point. And I did hate the auto start stop. Hope that helps--Bob
