If you are not used to the Auto Idle Stop feature on the 5th Generation Honda Odyssey (model years 2018-2024), then you may find it annoying or disruptive to your everyday driving. Auto Idle Stop is a feature that automatically shuts off the engine when your car is stopped, and restarts the engine when you go again. The reason why this feature was employed is to maximize fuel efficiency due to idling when the car is at a standstill. The only way you can permanently disable the Auto Idle Stop feature on the 2018-2024 Honda Odyssey is to use a device called the Idlestopper, which plugs in behind the dashboard.
