l am thinking about installing an automatic car starter in my new hyundia.My car sits outside all year, and I've always heard that you should let your car warm upbefore taking off.Is this true?Would a car starter be worth it?

Yes it is better on your engine. $150 at your local car tint and alarm place is fair.

Yes, but be careful. Once, my father left his starter in his pocket, sat on it and hit the button, and left the car running all night, and ran out the battery.

Yes, always warm your car up in the winter. Pushing cold oil through the engine is never a good idea. Not to mention it is bad for the transmission. You need to watch the automatic car starters, one mistake and you can screw it up electrically. It is always recommended to be done professionally. l had a car who is prior owner installed it. l had it taken out because it was causing so many problems.

Car starters are conveniences and nothing more. They waste gas and do nothing for the car. Warming up a car before driving may have been useful years a go but modern cars require no warm up just drive gently for the first few minutes after a cold start.

Remote start is a handy accessory for cold and hot weather. Climate control settings maintain passenger compartment for consistent comfort. No need to get in a cold vehicle in winter or hot vehicle in summer. Remote start will facilitate season appropriate air conditioner or heat, prior to passenger entry into vehicle.

This is a worthwhile investment. Remote start is an affordable convenience.

Yes that is true. Yes it would be worth it but take care.

Remote car starters are are a waste of money and gas. Modern engines with modern oils do not require extended warm up periods like older cars did. At minus 40F you can start a modern vehicle and drive it away after a minute or so. My 2006 Malibu came with remote start and we actually have it disabled. We would have been better served if GM had built some quality into the car instead of a bunch of useless marketing toys.
