Situation:
You had the car hot at full operating temperature and then parked the car where you are to do an oil change. Next day, why would you need to bring the oil up to temp again? Didn't everything drain out of the engine and is now sitting in the pan?
Talk amongst yourselves......

OIl flows better hot..... I dunno, it flows pretty easily cold. Bruce In Philly (2000 S Boxster, now '09 C2S) - Monday, 17 March, 2014, at 2:34:15 pm |

That Mobil 1 if pretty free-flowing oil. If you read these comments (on all the forums) about needing oil to be hot to flow, you would think it is molasses at room temp. I can empty a bottle of cold Mobil 1 pretty darn quickly and completely.
Just sayin'
