You can normally download the instructions from the web,personally I find it easier having a nice steady drive for the last couple of miles to my destination.

Good decision, was going to say that they can cause insurance issues anyway!

Garrett use water cooling to prolong the life of the seals etc, if you've been booting it and has a gentle drive its probably suffice.

On my fabia turbo diesel if on long runs i let it idle for a minute or two in services etc but i turn the car off.
