What’s the best action upon first starting the M5? Some sources and threads suggest let it idle at standstill a short while, some specifically say as soon as the car is started gently drive away (I think this is the BMW line?)
Same as others for me too. I wait for the cat cycle and rpm to drop then I coast down the hill in neutral for another minute till I slap it in gear (3rd at ~20mph) and go on.
