I hear topic come up in threads regarding start/stop technology. Some voice concerns over increased wear on the starter due to more frequent use, this is typically countered by others saying that these starters are specially built to handle such service. If so, what is different about the start/stop starters?
Our Jetta is equipped with one and the only difference I can tell (purely from the seat of my pants) is that it does start the car quickly. The "rotations" the starter has to make to turn the engine over happen very fast.
