DIC: "Warmup complete"????
I've never seen that message before. I was driving the car out of the parking garage after work when I looked down to see "warmup complete." What was warming up and why was the DIC telling me? I've never seen that message in 12,000 miles on my 2003. The only other message I've seen a couple times was a "Charge system fault" but that hasn't happened for some time and I've heard that can be an idiosyncratic thing with no real significance. Any thoughts???

It relates to the active handling system. Nothing to worry about, it is a normal message.

It means that you are not driving the car hard enough so it is telling you it is warmed up for some serious driving.
