We all have those naughty little driving habits and some will eventually kill our cars here are mine what are yours?
Resting hand on the gearstick - this can cause premature wear I'm told!
Resting foot over the clutch - caused very slight drag wearing the clutch.
Keeping clutch down at junctions - This can wreck the release bearing, stretch the cable and helped me kill 3 clutch cables overall (its worse on power and uprated clutches as there is more stress.
Driving off immediately - rather than wait for the engine to warm up! This causes premature engine wear as the oil is not fully circulating.
Revving hard when cold - (Nearly cured of this habit now) This really does cause damage, to the pistons especially eventually your pistons will permenently rattle when cold.

Elbow on the Door handle, and pretty much all the rest, plus palm steering, crossing my hands and does eating a 3 course meal with soup as a starter, a lobster main and profiteroles for afters while driving count as a bad habit?

I think there is also the slight possibility of a driving without due care and attention issue as well. Please tell me the soup was through a straw.
Naughty little habits - Fess up!
