magellanmax Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 my car doesnt need warming up... 1 minute and its haul ass time.i just turn the heated seats on. had a neighbor a few years back who bought one of those remote starters and installed it himself. one day he was at a laundromat. after loading the washers, he sauntered to the parking lot flipping the switch several times and nothing happened. a few minutes later, there was thick smoke billowing from under the hood.... by the time the FD got there, his car looked like a bbq grill. he prolly didnt install it right.

crowina Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 the question is...how may times have you gone out to start your car, go back inside, get sidetracked, and walk out to find your car has been running for half an hour?i lost count Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elementx Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 I usually go out in the morning and start it. Go back in the house finish getting my shit together for work. And go out about 5 minutes later. It is usually decent by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went in and about half the day went by when my landlord finally came down to my apartment to ask me if I knew it was running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgmodel Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 how long do you let ur car warm up in the morning during the cold winter months???i usually let it go for 10-15 mins...when i had a garage it was schweet man, just start it up and go... but now about thirty seconds to a minute then go... or until the car comes down form the high idle, modern cars dont need to idle, and idling isnt good for the car nor the environment... and it warms up faster that way...

dgmodel Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 i had this piece of shit jalopy for a hot minute a while back, and it was a '92 dodge spirit "the skany man" we used to call it, and you could pull the key out of the ignition while it was running so in the winter id wake up and turn that bad boy on, lock the door shower, and get in to a warm ass car with no frost or snow on the windshield...
