So I recently bought a 2005 C3 and while looking through the owners manual I noticed the car has a stop start system but a lamp for this never showed up while I was driving so I assumed my model didn't have it. A couple of times though the suns hit my speedo just right that I can see all the unlit lamp and I noticed my car does have an ECO lamp it's just never turned on. There isn't a button to deactivate or reactivate it near the radio like the manual says there should be so I'm at a loss.

Hello

I can say you definitely do not have a stop start C3. You would have found out already :lol:

The same manual and Speedo was used for all the models except pluriel and you have redundant pages and missing switches.

The Speedo will also have may other things that are useless to your model.
