the worst part was it wouldn't budge at all, even after driving around with the heater on full blast for a half hour, I was worried I'd broken the release cables or something. Cars just too well insulated I guess.

my bimmer had pneumatic door locks. they would always freeze in the winter. and turning the key doesnt mechanically unlock the door either, it electronically unlocks them pneumatically. so i hated it.

Just another problem i'll have to get around to fixing one day.

My door lock actuator is seized when its anything colder than about -0 its a pain in the ass to work around. My door stays shut and the only way in is thru the window, or warm up the car for 15mins than I can finally unlock the door. Once in a blue moon it'll work.

I don't have any problems in the winter, but in the summer, my urethane bumpers warp when its hot and the sun hits them. Then I can't get the driver door open. But as soon as I park in the shade, they're fine.

I guess it got to -54 on Mon with the wind chill. Last night it seemed colder than the other nights and it only was -45 with the wind chill
I never should have made the trip out here. The cold is awful, got driven into a ditch by a semi about 1 hour outside edmonton and now my battery's dead. Oh well, it's been fun.

well other than the cold,driving into a ditch and my car not being driveable it's been fun. I've gotten to hang out with Tasha and the baby since I prob won't see them for a few months, and I went shopping at west ed which is always fun  . I also got to see a friend I haven't really seen for a couple of years
