Warm up / Start up time?

[j2dad5389]

Does anyone know if it's bad to put the car in S/S+ while car is at 160 still?

There is a road probably 5-10 minutes into my commute that I absolutely loving ripping on with all my settings to the max. My car isn't ever properly warmed up though in time as it is tinkering between 160-180 when I get there. Is this bad for the car?

I'm assuming that you mean that the temperature reads 160 degrees!

No, you can drive away from a cold start in S/S+.

Hey guys, i kind of did a bone head thing i warmed up my car for a good 5 minutes, i was around the 2nd to last tach on my rev counter and i did a pull, will there be any damage to my internals?

I wait a max of 30 sec before I start to drive. Keep the rpm < 3k rpm until the oil is up to temp. Wait even longer on extremely cold days to ensure components, not just oil, has reached reasonable temps.

No. You’re good.
