I know this topic has been posted....but now that it's getting colder, I'm curious to know how long do you warm up the car before you drive off. On days like this (low 30's and below) I just let it warm up for 30-45 seconds MAX and just drive off slowly.
I guess what prompted me to post this was that I brought my car in to the dealer for service. I got there about 10 minutes early and had to wait till the service dept was open for business. I watched as the dealer techs turned on about 10+ loaner cars and just let them sit there idleing. I guess it's safe precaution on their end because I always drive loaner like rentals .....I drive it like I stole it
