fishbone Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 It depends on what type of soap you use. Most soap is corrosive and will melt right through the intercooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krzyss Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I start my car everyday in -30 to -40 weather. It won't start if it's not plugged in, and barely starts in the really cold stuff (won't idle, won't stay running in neutral, takes forever to heat up) These cars are fine for regular weather, but sub-arctic climates is something Subaru does not have figured out. I love the car, but sadly because of this it'll be traded for something domestic soon enough. To answer the orginial question, although I'm not sure it's entirely serious, that kind of balmy weather is of non-consequence to your car. What oil are you using?

SubieNewbie Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 My LGT has never faultered in the cold NE climate (pretty cold lately), but apparently a little snow and ice (last Friday)... oh yeah, and an oncoming garbage truck and a parked car didn't agree with it much!!

Listerine Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 SubieNewbie, I've been told that if you had been driving a spec B garbage trucks and parked cars are just like a little snow and ice. It will all buff out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Just to be clear, when you guys look at temperatures, look at absolute temperature, since cars don't care about wind chill temps. That's just for plants, animals and people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieNewbie Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 NJ does not equal NE in this case NE = North Eastern ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
