Yeah. I was reading a lot on the oil problem and bearings but couldn't come to a full conclusion. In Ottawa sometimes it can somewhat rarely hit -25c.

Either just drive it real slow until it's warmed uip or change oil in winters and never redline it since the winter oils are not 60 when hot. But even the last option, I'm not sure if it's a good idea.
