Today, its been really really cold where I live like below 0 without windchill...anyway my car was outside overnight and I decided to bring it in the garage, man did it have a long turn over. Then when it was on the engine sounded like a diesel truck! It was awesome! I know its because its been sitting there and its really cold so its going to run/idle rough at first until it warms up. According to my scanguage the coolent temp was below 0! Although it warmed up fairly fast. I hate the cold and winter...That's my warm up story
