Hi Andy,
You can turn it off in the menu but it will only last until you start the car again.
Unfortunately the stop start defaults to always on every time the ignition is cycled.
The car can be configured to retain the last setting but this will need a GAP IID tool or similar that can edit the car configuration files.
If you do want to do this let me know and I’ll find the settings you need to change.
It was the first job I did when I got my D5.
Hope this helps.

You can program the function of the "favourite " (diamond) button on the steering wheel to turn off stop-start. You'll still need to press it every journey, but it's just one button press.
