Disabling the auto stop feature in your 2018 Chevrolet Malibu is a simple task that can be completed in just 3 to 4 minutes. First, ensure you are seated on the driver's side of your vehicle. Then, look for the start/stop deactivation switch on the dashboard, typically located to the right of the steering wheel. If you cannot find the switch, you will need to shift into the L (low gear) position. Repeat this process five more times for a total of six times. This will prompt the "SRX" code to appear on your stereo display screen, indicating that the start/stop function is now fully disabled.

    None of the provided options are accurate. To deactivate the automatic stop feature in your 2016-2019 Malibu, follow these steps: First, turn off the car. Pop open the hood and locate an electrical connector near the hood latch. Disconnect this connector, ensuring both ends are protected from water damage. Close the hood, and you're finished.

    To turn off the stop-start function in your 2018 Malibu, shift your gear lever into the "L" position and count up 6 times until the display shows 6. Remember to do this every time you start the car. I have a 2018 Malibu, so I can confirm that this method works. Hope this tip is useful to you.

    Is it possible to avoid shifting into low gear and quickly switching back to Drive once you start moving, rather than manually shifting up?
