How Long Does Your 2014 -2016 S Models Take to Warmup?
Hey Guys,
I've been even more cautious about warming up the motor since my tune went in before getting on it. But it sure seems take a lot longer than my 2011 does. This morning I timed it until the blue went to white (159 degrees btw). It took a full 9 minutes. This was with some city driving and mostly highway miles of driving pretty tame. The thing is that my commute is only about 12 minutes total each way (Lucky me. lol). So I don't get to have much fun getting to and from work.
Does this sound the same as what you guys get? It just seems to creep up really slowly. Is the cooling system on the M157's that good? lol

Based on that thread my 9 minutes is actually pretty decent. Lol. The 2011 M156 gets there in about 5 to 6 minutes.

Always had it garaged and in Florida so with the temperature outside being warm, takes 5-10mins. I always warm up my beasts before taking it for a ride.

It's 55 and rainy in NY today. It took roughly 10 mins of <30 mph local driving (traffic lights and all) for mine to warm up (blue -> white). At least you get to drive yours every day, twice a day, for 12 mins. I only get to drive mine on the weekends!

174 is blue and 176 turns white, always seems to jump past 175 so I am not sure what the color of that number is.

On a side note, the damn liquid moly oil 5/40 in this hot *** summer has been awesome. Much smoother and quieter than the Mobil1, seems to get to normal temps faster but does not get any higher than Mobil1 if flogged in the summer heat. And best of all, no topping off of oil since the last change (~1000miles during which I flogged it a lot more to see how long before top off is needed.)
