Florida, so my little 4cyl is still like 70F when I start my car at 5am. By the time I drive out of my neighborhood and get up to 35mph on a main road, that 5w-20 is plenty warm.

Doesn't matter how hot your climate is.
You should always leave to warm up for at least 30secs to a min just to get oil flowing.
>>14151289
>paying for shit you could check manually
Congrats, you warmed up the engine and nothing else... There is nothing wrong with letting your car idle for a minute or two before you drive. However, if you are going to do an aggressive drive you should probably do a few warm up laps where you drive at normal speeds to warm up other things besides the engine.
>>14151306
TPMS has been mandatory in all cars sold in the United States since 2007. You have no choice when you buy something 2007 and newer.

My most modern car has a low tire pressure signal check indication on when its at like 37 psi which is in the middle of my tires recommend pressure range. Pretty annoying
>>14151357
>pressure range
You are an idiot.
Also, to much air can rekt TPMS.
>he takes off the stock filter/carbure(a)tor to put an aftermarket air intake next to the headers
>>14151357
Mine comes on at 28psi.
What do you drive that 37psi is low?
>>14151305
>what is some bullshit
This was only a thing before good oil pumps existed. This isn't necessary any more. You idiots are falling for a 100 year old meme.
>>14151391
tpms doesnt just come on when air is low. If the air is to high it will fuck up the sensors and come on.
>>14151377
My tires max psi is 45(says so on tire wall), lowest you can go on road tires is 30(common knowledge). I usually fill them to 40. Its a Shitfiniti, I'm selling it though
My car starts at 2000RPM when it's cold and then slowly revs down as it gets warmer.
I just wait about a minute until it hits 1500RPM and then drive slowly for a few miles until everything gets warmed. Since I drive a shitty Subaru, I need to do this otherwise the motor will explode on me.

The pros of having loud tires... you can so goddamned easily tell if the pressure has gotten a bit lower
>>14151421
Oil starving bearings is likely to happen to any cold engine that gets flogged on while it's cold.
Remember kids it can take 2 to 5 times longer For oil to reach operating temperature compared too coolant
>he lives in some shithole country/state where temperatures go below 50 degrees.
>>14151441
Okay, which bearings?
>>14151420
Negro, max pressure is only really needed if you are towing. Its not a mark to measure "pressure range." Open your drivers door and read what the sticker says to put in your tires, faggot. Your TPMS comes on not because they are shit but because you are shit.

I've pumped mine up to 44psi when I had a leak in my tire and the light didn't come on. It has only came on at 28psi in the last 6 years/151k.

It's oil faggot. This is the dumbest thing ever.
Warming up a car longer than 10 sec is a meme from when cars were shit piles decades ago. Moron.
>>14151527
That is true, oils used for really old engines are much thicker compared to one in newer cars

Whether it's my '79 351M, '87 Benz, or my dad's '02 Buick, I give it about 5 seconds before shifting into gear and taking off regardless of weather. The only exception is if it's too cold and I need the car to warm up so I can exist in there, or if it's too cold and the windshield fogs up.

>>14151560
>>14151441
So...2 to 5 seconds?
Please remember that the oil pressure is related to engine speed.
At idle you have the lowest flow rate and lowest oil pressure.
Just fucking get in and drive it.
>>14151062
My car starts up at like 1600 RPM and idles down to 1000. No idea why, but I always let it do the idle down thing before putting it in gear and driving off.
I also try not to rev it hard until the oil temperature is in the middle of the gauge thingy.
I don't really know what I'm doing but I assume this is gentle to my car.
>>14151062
>he doesn't let his turbo cool off before shutting the car
>>14151593
The ecu is set to have the idle air control valve at a set position when cranking (probably has a coolant temp or air temp variable). The valve then ramps from the cranking position to the fast idle position, throttling the engine speed down as the valve closes.
>>14151593
It's for emissions and quicker warm-up. Additionally, due to the higher power required to pump cold oil, and the poor atomization of fuel when cold the higher idle helps keep the engine from stalling or having other running issues.
hahha
>>14151527
I don't get your argument, oil is thin when cold and thicker when hot. At low rpm thin oil Will lubricate fine, if you rev the engine more it won't be able to easily stay where it needs to nor will it take up tolerance spaces as well. When oil is hot it will stay where it is needed and take up tolerances spaces.
You can overheat oil just like coolant so it does have an operating temperature.
>>14151464
top wew
>>14151574
How long does it take your coolant gauge to reach running temp, it can take oil two to give times longer
>>14151767
>oil is thin when cold and thicker when hot.
>>14151767
Have you ever fried something?
>>14151574
Oil pressure is also related to oil thickness, low oil pressure at idle is not worrisome, the 351 cleveland can have as low as 0 pounds of oil pressure at idle, it does this just fine because there isnt as great a need for oil. Its when you're revving high and you have low oil pressure you have problems. Its also a problem,to have too much oil pressure.

Engine oil and fryer oil are not the same thing.
Please go ahead, red line the car right after to start it up and go boost the shit out of it while the oil is cold. Its not my money when you grenade turbos and spin bearings.
>>14151767
>oil is thin when cold and thicker when hot
>>14151825
Not sure what point you're making here but that yahoo answers says that the thing about multigrade oils is they have a smaller difference in viscosity between hot and cold temps. They still get thinner when hot and thicker when cold, but less so than a single grade. Doing an oil change when your engine is hot and another when it's cold will show you this.
>>14151825

>>14151825
for an xW-Y oil, x is the viscosity of oil at 40°C corresponding to mono grade SAE equivalent of such oil. Y is the viscosity of oil tested at 100°C and labelled as the monograde SAE equivalent oil showing the same flow properties.
For instance, grade 5W-30 oil has its 40°C viscosity within the SAE 5 monograde range and 100°C viscosity at SAE 30 range. In laymans terms, a 5w30 oil at 40°C will not be as thick as a SAE30 monograde would be but as a SAE5 would.
However at 40°C SAE5 viscosity (64.0 mm2/s) is higher (oil being thicker) than SAE30 at 100°C (11.0 mm2/s). These figures are specific to motul 300v 5w30, check any msds / spec sheet of an oil and you will see the same pattern.
All in all, oil is thinner when hot.

leaving engine idling is illegal in germany. even at the rare railroad crossings (they're all grade separated because of high speed rail)
if you're at a railroad crossing you have to shut off your motor if theres a train crossing

My point was inflating the tire the maximum pressure on the sidewall had no ill effect, but it going lie triggers it. Unfortunately you're too stupid to figure that out.
>b-b-but if you inflate it retardedly high you MIGHT mess it up
>>14152506
It's also illegal to drive around town with no goal in Germany, but have you ever seen police actually enforce such idiotic laws?
>>14152506
I shut my car off because you get no em pee gees while idling.
>>14152600
There are cruising laws in America too.
>>14151322
Mandatory?
Do reels do?
Driving easy under 2-3k rpm doesn't much or any more stress than letting it idle.
The only actual reason to warm your car up before driving is to turn your heater on and let it warm up the interior before you get in.
>>14151825
Holy shit you're retarded.

Im fully aware that low pressure triggers the fucking tire sensor. Thats its fucking job. But some tire sensors do get fucked up if you inflate the tire to fucking high. Are you a nigger by change? You seem to have the intelligence of a nigger.
