a little problem with cold weather
#1

Just started noticing that as mornings get colder, when i start driving changing from 1st to 2nd gear is a little bit clunky!!! Once the cars warmed up, its all fine!! Also another thing ive noticed is that when i start up the car, its starts at about 1600 rpm rather than just under 1000rpm. Again once the car has warmed up is drives fine!!
Just want to know if anyone else has this problem??

The 1600rpm would most prolly be the auto choke compensating for the block being so cold....
I would be interested to hear what the rest of the crew have to say about their experiences.
I'll let you know in a week when mine arrives!!!
:P

I just thought it waz a bit wierd, as this only started when the weather became really cold!
Im going to book the car in for a service soon, so ill probably get it checked out then.
But some advice from other forum members on this topic would be much appreciated.
Just want to make sure nothing major iz wrong wid da sxc beast!!

Chris.
On cold mornings mine goes straight to 2 grand and stays there for about 30 seconds, then it hovers at 1000 for about a minute then settles down to 750. hope this helps, but mine is TT.
