Does the 2013 GMC Sierra 1500 have auto start-stop?
On some configurations. Yes on the 6.0L 8-cylinder hybrid. No on the 4.8L 8-cylinder, 5.3L 8-cylinder and 6.2L 8-cylinder. The 4.3L 6-cylinder is listed both with and without it, depending on the build.
Key takeaways
- Start-stop cars restart the engine many times per drive, so they are usually fitted with an AGM or EFB battery - replace like with like.
- Most systems have an off button that disables start-stop until the engine is next started; some models remember the setting.
