I have heard that once you reach your point of destination after driving from a long trip you should not shut the car off instantly and let the engine idle for a few minutes. Is this so?
No! Unless the engine has a turbo charger, idling like that only wastes gasoline, and does nothing else. But if it has a turbo, let it for a minute so the turbo has time to spin down.
