I learn this method from a website that i can't find it to link...

So far, had tried on one of my previous ride which i sold it after 8.5years, and also on my current ride which is 4.5years now....

So far so good for me...will do it on my next new ride again...

Regards,

Ct

Read your owner manual and it will tell U how to "drive your car" in the initial "run in period"

MB unlike cars like Lambo after tested on the assembly line, they bring the car to the road.

Unlike "years ago" machining of especially engine parts are not held to a very tight tolerances in the absence of CNC machining equipment.

Still it takes time for the mechanical parts like piston rings, valves, camshafts etc to sit in.

Off course U can even WOT your brand new ride and nothing will be felt even if U have more initial wear during this run-in period than necessary.

I guess the choice is yours.

For me I still runs in my car according to the recommendations in the owner manual.

Gd morn unker, :yo:

Manufacturer/ engineer makes n strictly followed textbook so no lie! :whistle:

Gd highlights, Kam Sia. :becky:

Bt again, its all dependg on individual lor! :hand:
