The Low-Down on Idling the Engine<\/h3>\n
Multiple sources suggest that starting up your vehicle on a cold morning is not necessary, and it only does more harm than good.<\/p>\n

If you feel the need to start the vehicle and let it idle (such as when the windows are fogged over), the magic amount is 10 to 30 seconds. That is the perfect amount of time to brush away snow and scrape away ice from the windshield!
