My 240 is back and driving great but how long should it take to warm up.
As long as it is above 32F my car warms up the way it should, but when it sits overnight when the temp is 20F it takes forever to get to operating temperature. If I let my car idle to op. temp after sitting in 20F temps it takes like 20min.
I checked the coolant temp and it is fine, and the thermostat is good too.
How long does/should it take to warm up in freezing weather?

thanks
