For some reason i just noticed the extra beep (6 in total). It worried me cuz i dont know if theres something wrong with the car/engine. I havent read the manual but i dont think it says nething about the beeps.

Call me paranoid but I always wait till the beeping stops then I start my car, I have always done this in all my cars. It's a pet peeve of mine when people would jump in their cars and start their car in one motion and drive off like 2 seconds after they started their car.

Call me an old man but I like to wait for my car to warm up for a couple minutes before taking off, it just makes me feel better.

jumpin in the car and just driving right away is like the worst thing you can ever do....give the car a min or two to start circulating the oil, and let the oil warm a tad

AR will become famous soon enough
i fuuckin hate when people do that, its so bad for the car. Whenever i turn the car on for the first time i always let it oil temp go up to the first line, it take about 5 minutes usually. Even if i leave the car parked for 3 or 4 hours when i come back from class i still warm her up. trust me it's these small things that make your cun smooth in the long run.

dont sweat the beep though bro
