Yes engines are started and tested at the manufacturer for different reasons, but to take one with no miles and just drive it like you stole it from day one is'nt recommended by any means.

 

yeap his right, thats why u wait a week then u drive like u stole it, problem fixed

 

I don't know, it seems like all the oil consumption problems are coming from people who said they broke their car in.

During my break in period, I hit 90 a few times but rpms were under 4K.

 

WAIT.....Break in period??? whats that?....

 

i didnt drive 100mph for a long period of time, when i hit 100 i immediately reduced my speed, did it twice.

 

i normally went 70-80 brand new, but at 800mi+ I hit 120 on I-5!!

Nothing is broken so far

 

 

From motorcycles to cars I have read a lot on break in. Almost all of the conclusions were: break it in the way you are going to drive it! I have always done this and had no prblems yet. Most are against this, but do some recearch on other sites and I think you'll see what I mean.

 

Best to follow the manual but a few blips over 4 Gs RPM ain't gonna screw the goose or your engine.

 

How many times do you think it was redlined during all the test drives.

 

+1
I hear this all the time.

 

lol what can i tell u, i guess each person drives differntly
