Floyd-
Check the condition of your hydraulic system soon- if your red "brake" light
does not turn off when you release the handbrake, then you may have the
signs of a failing pressure accumulator (aka "bomb"). At the same time, you
might want to inspect your hydraulic hoses for any leaks to make sure you
don't have a slow leak causing the symptoms.
With an oil temp gauge in the car, I usually try not to hit full boost until
the oil temp has risen above 85-90C. IOW, go easy on the drive until the
engine is up to normal operating temperature.
