Cold Up Here in Atlantic Canada

She still starts up fine though. Some belts are making noises but other than that it's all good.

OP, I am curious to know what Oil you using this time of the year?
Anything special you do to your car, like block heater or something?

I don't do anything special. Just hit the Start button and wait a minute or two while it "warms" up. During that time, I anxiously wait for the heated seat, heated steering wheel and hot air to become effective.

The car does like to jerk and sputter for the first bit of driving though. I think I need some new plugs, coils, etc. Just bought this in August with ~90,000km. It has never had new plugs or coils.

Look up eBay seller: Germanautosupply
His Bosch plugs and coils are very good price and all OEM.
And a 12 point deep wall socket.
I bought it from BMS.....better construction than the one Sears Sells.
Set your torque wrench to 20 lb/ft.....you'll be fine.
