[QUOTE="meetoo, post: 216258, member: 4025"] :) Agreed. Engine warm-up at idling speed is detrimental because it take about 5 mins to warm-up to operating temp vs 30 sec under gentle driving. So about 10 times more of higher engine wear and oil sludging before the car reach operating temp. The correct way is to drive off immediately on starting engine but using gentle acceleration and not exceeding 2500 rpm until operating temp is reached. A lot of these myths started in the early days of cars, and still passed on although car technology have developed very much since then. [/QUOTE]
