Yes, in fact it will almost always warm up quicker while driving.
if the temp outside is cold then let the engine warm up a few minutes before attempting to drive the car..... older cars like 98 and older tend to need warming up..
you have a diesel warming light on the dashboard display near the speedo,in the cold turn ignition on,let the warming light go out then count to ten,i have to do this twice to get mine to start on cold mornings,when engine is hot then just wait for the diesel warming light on the dash board to go out and that will do it,takes roughly 3 seconds to go out.
No, if the oil pump drive is working cold it will work hot. Low oil press when warm is due to internal engine wear.
The effects on global warming on the bioshere are snow everywhere and cold days... we might even freeze to death... global warming is so COLD.
When an engine is warming up the car may idle erratically. This happens because the air may be to cold and the colder air will cause abnormal combustions to ensure in the engine. The computer is set to make the engine function under certain conditions, such as having the engine operate at an optimal temperature.
Most likely to be a faulty coolant temprature sensor It will be sending the wrong data to the ECU making the ECU think that the engine is cold And increasing the mixture strength Possibly causing the engine to flood

Im a sixteen year old guy who has a cold blooded car and it means when it is cold out side and i mean cold like gotta wear a jacket or something. When you start your car it will idle okay sometimes but will die if you dont pump on the gas. If its cold outside the engine is cold so if you want to just hop in the car and put it in drive you just cant b/c the car will die b/c the engine is to cold and the car will shut off on you. So you got to let the engine worm up before you can drive. Mostly happens with older cars
This is normal for your car, The computer is working extra hard when the engine is cold Because it is not designed to operate at that temp, It is designed to warm up the engine and emissions system as quick as possible without damaging the engine, That is why MOST vehicles will run at A higher rate when COLD (BELOW NORMAL OPERATING TEMP). As for the up and down engine speeds, I can't answer that but it is normal, I have owned 3 of the CIVICs in that same engine family. Good luck, Jamison.
Cold, no. Water from rain/melted snow, yes. If there are big puddles and flooding, do not drive with a cold air intake on your car, as water in your engine can ruin it internally.
so you will not get cold
Check to insure that the engine coolant is full and the thermostat is not stuck. Without the heated fluid from the engine the heater will always blow cold air.
