Immersant

Cybertronians are long-lived beings, capable of surviving for millions of years. For some, this great age causes them to grow weary, and those who decide to go immersant retire themselves to become on with Cybertron itself and enjoy peaceful rest.

While this certainly sounds like a final end, some immersant bots can still be communicated with (though they seem to lose some of their awareness, half-awake and prone to forgetting who they're talking to), and under some circumstances, can even emerge from their stasis and walk among the living once again.
