Do you guys warm up your car? I usually let mine site for a few minutes...

I used to, until I found out it was completely worthless. it's better to drive the car after 30seconds, that way all the driveline parts warm up together.

60 sec b4 i take off, then once the temp gauge is perfectly pointing left i let her loose

i am ruthless on my car...out of my drive way redline...its giong to catch up to me one day..im am not a good speller but site is spelled sit...right?

on regular days I just wait till that beeping sound stops and on cold days I wait 1-2 minutes

warming up your car is not "worthless", there was just a post on here earlier (about 2 weeks ago) about how the hardest part on the engine is the start because of corrosive gasoline that is not burned off/removed by warm oil...so you should let it sit for a min or so in my opinion..

i usually wait until it's fully warmed up, needle in the middle. but i also have 159k miles on my car and it sounds horrible when i start it. I have really bad piston slap so i wait until that starts to go away, i wait to let the pistons expand so they aren't hitting so hard.

My car doesn't move until the coolant needle moves from the bottom line. And it doesn't go over 3K RPM until it's full operating temp. That's why I got a remote start :)

yeah, you know right when you start the car the SRS light blinks and theres a little beeping noise, I just wait till that goes away

I warm mine up for about 30 seconds then go easy on the throttle till the water temp gauge gets to normal temps then I romp on that sucka. My car runs like crap when its warming up also don't know why maybe after i do the rebuild it won't do it anymore :)

Weird...my SRS lights flashes, but I don't hear any beeping...at least I don't remember hearing a beeping...

mine just comes on then off what is that light???

I usually just wait long enough to pick out a song...I know it's hard on the engine, and my engine and accessories are starting to make a lot of noise...hopefully a rebuilt and turbo in the future and I can go easy on her then...

SRS= Suplemental restraint system...............damn i really cant spell........:thumbsup
