You guys are stubborn. Who exactly do you want to hear from to convince you that a car does not need to idle or warm up before driving?

As for embarrassing myself, you think I care what opinion you have of me? Oh, you speak for all the members of this forum?

If you don't care for this thread, just move on to some other one.

I don't think anyone is arguing that a modern engine needs to warm up before driving, only that it does no (or extremely little) damage to the engine if you do let it idle for a few minutes.

It's what the other guy was saying till some folks got rude and drove him away. Unlike you, the idiots were repeating that the articles (which said what you summarized) were all wrong.
