my new workplace is about 3.5 miles from home and is a steady drive, is it going to kill my engine if i use it daily or is it long enough for the oil to warm up? takes about 10 mins.
The oils never going toget to full temp in that time. Dont rag it and all should be fine. It takes about 10 to 15 mins after the coolant temp has reached normal for my oil temp to get to normal so that gives you an idea
Drive the car steady keep it off boost until it is up to temp,change oil and filter regulary,should be fine,Used with a bit of care Scooby engines are pretty tough
Engines are more efficient when they are hot, if your not getting it hot then you have a larger issue with condensation and carbon build up both are not good for your engine....
my work is only a couple of miles from where i live.i never go straight there,i always get the oil up to temp and take it for a blast up the A1 before i go to work.

And the bonus: You always arrive at work with a cheesy grin.
