sounds like you got the 'chill' that my son had been experiencing up in Fairbanks, Alaska recently ... the high last Friday was -19F ... it's warmer today, all the way up to +7F.welshfyr said:So...Calgary broke the record for low temps today! Well....the record from 110 years ago.

The speakers didn't like it, it started, but didn't want to, and the tire sensors went crazy! With that said, they all went back to normal after 10 minutes or so.
For the 'yanks' in our little family, that's -37 degree Celsius = -34.6 degree Fahrenheit
That by the way was BEFORE the wind chill.
All I can say is "Get me the hell south to visit my dad in Arizona!"
I've had that happen (flat spots). It's kind of neat to hear the tires go fwump, fwump, fwump down the road for a few minutes 8)rommel543 said:...When it gets past -40 things stop working right on your vechile. The air in the tires shrink causing a flat spot in the wheel. If you start driving too quickly you'll either blow the seam or blow the tire.
It gets more noticable the colder it gets. It feels like you're driving over large rocks at -50. You also have to make sure that ALL your tires are moving to. I dragged one wheel for about 2 blocks because the flat spot got so bad the wheel would't turn.Webmaster said:I've had that happen (flat spots).

leaving the car unattended while running is now problem cuz the door lock when the remote start is used.Big waste of keychain space not to mention FUEL!
Compass starts well when cold and warms up quickly.
Unattended car should NEVER be left with the motor running.
