Just curious what the range on the temp gauges are?

Also, I took a pic this am of -9. Anything I should be concerned about with the car at these temps? I am running good snow tires.

burrr.

 

I'll trade ya? I'll be in Telluride next weekend can't wait! This is our typical winter.

 

Mine is the coldest F degrees, last winter in my Cayenne S (-30 F)

Cant find pic, I will find it.

 

Crap, 88 degrees at 12 am? Were you in a hot garage or something?

 

My 9 year old daughter set the clock on daylight savings, it really is 12pm
It still is hot! I was unfortunately driving down the highway

 

Got it! That makes way more sense.

Well, it's still nice to know that these cars can be used in the extremes. Pretty reliable.

 

Damn that's cold! Our weather has been crazy in Houston. Snow, cold, heat, cold, then back warm next week. I don't think even it knows WTF it wants to do. LOL!

 

I'll be down that way shortly. Looks like wife and I will be relocating to Austin (Round Rock) in the next 6 months.

I look forward to selling my snow tires/wheels.

 

You might wnat to hold off. Austin gets is fair share of ice every year. I think last is was pretty bad. Only last a day or two.

 

Have the awd Infiniti for those days.

 

Intercoolers? I don't need no stinking intercoolers!!!!!

 

No Kidding, but that raises another question that I had this am.

It was cold, but the highway was clear and dry for part of my drive in. I got to open it up in 4th and it didn't seem to have quite the power that I would see on, say a 35 degree day.

The readout was still read 1.0 BAR, it just didn't feel like it.
Engine was up to temp at the time.

Can extreme cold have a negative effect on power output?

 

I feel the same things in my cars, especially in last nights -11F. My guess is the lube and grease throughout the car is much less viscous, making it seem like there is less power.

 

Here's winter from friends abroad...
