i got the car last May so im definitely done with break in!



New vehicle break-in driving (the first 1000 miles [1600 km])
The performance and long life of your vehicle are dependent on how you
handle and care for your vehicle while it is new. Follow these instructions
during the first 1000 miles (1600 km):

  • Do not allow the engine speed to exceed 4000 rpm except in an emergency.
  • Do not drive at one constant engine or vehicle speed for a long time,
    either fast or slow.
  • Avoid starting suddenly and rapid acceleration, except in an emergency.
  • Avoid hard braking, except in an emergency.
    The same break-in procedures should be applied to an overhauled
    engine, newly mounted engine or when brake pads or brake linings are
    replaced with new ones.
