Did you get a block heater installed? and do you park outside or do you have a garage?

This is what I do ever since my SST had its fit. I usually let it idle for a minute or two before going through 2 cycles. (Park to Drive, back to park, down to Drive and Reverse to back out of the driveway; pausing at each for 3-5 seconds). Seems to do the job for the RA.
Though, the defroster for the front windshield is HORRID. Even with Rain-X latitudes, the windshield takes forever to de-ice. Thinking of getting it treated with something. Maybe splashing some additional antifreeze into the washer fluid.
