i appreciate the importance of warming the car up before driving 'properly', but what do u do when it takes u literally 2 minutes before u are on the motorway? i just toodle along at about 60 ish until she warms up.

does motorway driving cause damage when cold??

 

I Have defis in my car, and even though the water temp is in the middle, and warm, the oil tmep on the defi hasnt even moved!!

takes around 5-10 mins, keep it under 3000rpm.... what i was told, which aint a bad thing.

 

sounds like the safest bet.

just a shame as it always seems to be when the car is cold that another scoob or something comes along to 'play' and gives u wierd cos u wont floor it.
