How much idling is too much?

Leaving your car running can mean you hop into a toasty warm vehicle in winter, or a cool blast in summer. It can seem like a good idea, but might not be worth it in the end. Good-to-know idling tips • When sitting parked, idling for more than 10-30 seconds starts to waste more gas, and causes more wear and tear on your engine, than restarting your vehicle. • On a cold day, the best way to warm up your car is to drive it, slowly easing into your drive for the first few minutes. • The fastest way to get warm air blowing into your car in the winter is to keep your fan on low until you see the engine heat gauge start to move.
