Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hey folks - when I take my car out for a drive after it has been sitting in my driveway for a couple days seems to lack power for the first 5 miles or so. It seems to really bog down in power and then after a miles of driving it seems to come back to life. Anyone have an idea what is happening? Is it a problem? Common? Suggestions please and thank you. Dr.
drive it daily, that should solve the problem..... also you may try a fuel system cleaner
My car's vital fluids aren't properly heated within 5 miles to make any assessments about power. Even with the water temp @ 180C my oil would barely be above 45C in 5 miles this time of year. When I hooked up the durametric, I was amazed at how long it took for my engine oil to get above 90C. Best not to heavily load the engine for the first 12 mins or so, more in the winter.
Thanks everyone, it sounds like this is a common thing and nothing to really worry about.
Possibly related, I would verify it is not using oil and/or AOS going bad
