Winter-driving tips to defrost your windshield faster, and others to avoid — via drivingdotca Troubleshooter WinterDriving
One of the biggest drags in trying to warm up a cold vehicle on a frosty morning that’s been parked outside all night is the time it can take to defrost the windshield. A hack for these chilly situations is to lower both sun-visors before hitting the ignition and setting the HVAC controls to defrost. The visors act as a barrier to the smooth flow of air up from the defrost vents, past the windshield, and onto the headliner.
Not all tips and tricks bring such desirable results, however. You seldom hear about the trick of using a section of pantyhose as an emergency replacement for a broken engine drive belt anymore, for instance. This is because most automakers have moved from traditional V-groove pulleys, which would accept the temporary hosiery repair, to the wider ribbed type that take a much longer, flatter serpentine belt.
