Editing Start-stop system (section)

== Enhanced components ==
The system needs to be implemented in conjunction with modifications and reinforcements on many of the car's components in order to reinforce the engine and electrical system durability and long-term wear resistance, as added stopping and starting cycles impose increased loads on those systems. To accomplish similar levels of [[durability]], [[comfort]] and [[user experience]] to that of older cars without the system, the car's manufacturer can include any of the following enhancements in the car's [[industrial design]]:

* The engine [[plain bearing|main (crankshaft) bearings]] are coated with special [[polymer]]s that have properties of [[dry lubricant]]s, such as [[polyamide]]. This aids the lack of the [[motor oil]] film and hydrodynamic [[lubrication]] when the [[crankshaft]] stops, preventing metal-to-metal contact that would otherwise produce accelerated wear on the bearing surfaces.
* The main [[automotive battery|battery]] is either [[absorbent glass mat]] (AGM) or [[enhanced flooded battery]] (EFB) technology,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.rotronicsbms.com/battery-tips/what-you-need-to-know-about-efbs-enhanced-flooded-batteries/|title=What You Need To Know About EFB's (Enhanced Flooded Batteries)}}</ref> both supporting an increased number of [[charge cycle|charging cycles]] and increased [[electrical load|load]]. This is important because all the car's electrical system must be maintained by the battery after the [[alternator (automotive)|alternator]] stops generating current. Often the battery will be labeled as supporting or specifically designed for start-stop.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Atkins |first=Travis |date=2021-12-17 |title=What is a start/stop car battery? |url=https://www.marshallbatteries.com.au/resources/what-is-a-start-stop-car-battery/ |access-date=2023-10-17 |website=Marshall Batteries |language=en-AU}}</ref>
* The [[starter (engine)|starter]] is reinforced and designed to withstand continuous use without wearing too fast or overheating.
* An independent [[internal combustion engine cooling|cooling circuit]] is added in conjunction with an electrical runoff [[pump|water pump]] that keeps on running when the main [[mechanical system|mechanical]] pump goes out. This ensures the coolant supply to heat sensitive engine components like [[turbocharger]] bearings and to keep [[HVAC|cabin temperature]] in wintertime. 
* Special [[sensor]]s and [[engine control unit]]s (ECUs) can be added to ensure proper system running conditions, and to keep parameters between tolerance like a good battery charge, essential to guarantee future starts.
