e-Torque opinions and can it be disabled?

[ramltd01]

I've had my '23 limited for a short while now, and find the on/off feature to be a great benefit in traffic. However, I've found it to be a hindrance in parking situations, where I'm pulling into a spot. Guess I'm just on the cusp of stopped/rolling and the engine cuts - but etorque kicks in when I lift the brake a hair. Are there a tuning/configuration options (AlfaOBD?) that allow a user to set time delay for on/off??

Thanks

Had my 22 Laramie since October. Tried my darnedest to get used to the eTorque and appreciate its so called benefits. I have given up. I just turn the stupid thing off now every time I start the truck.

There is a module you can add so you don't have to manually turn the Engine Start/Stop off every time you start the vehicle:

Ram Auto Start-Stop Disable

Autostop Eliminator is designed to safely disable the start-stop feature on your RAM truck. Plug it in & it’s ready to work. Disable your RAM's auto stop now

The eTorque functions can't be turned off with the switch, module or with AlfaOBD.

And that was the best $79 I've spent on any truck LOL

Can the engine braking be turned off on the e torque? When you touch the brake the trans downshifts. I want to coast to a stop sign. Pushing the disable button will not shut off the engine breaking.

The start/stop function can be turned off. And, it stays off until you turn engine off; upon restart simply press button on turn it off.

Reach down to the shift knob and put into neutral. Coast to your hearts content.

There is constant downshifting or engine breaking with the E torque. I find I am putting it into neutral every time I touch the break pedal, them the truck will coast. Turning the start stop off does not change the downshifting. Tow mode is off. Dealer says there is no fix for this.
