Do New Cars Need Break-in Additives?
1 Answers
New cars do not require break-in additives. Normal driving during the break-in period is sufficient. Precautions during the break-in period include: 1. Warm up the engine before starting; 2. Avoid emergency braking; 3. Prevent overloading; 4. Avoid long-distance trips; 5. Do not drive at high speeds; 6. Use high-quality gasoline; 7. Do not remove the speed limiter prematurely; 8. Shift gears promptly; 9. Properly adjust the ignition and fuel supply systems. The break-in period generally refers to the process where mechanical components make initial contact, friction, and engagement during early operation. Successfully completing the break-in period plays a crucial role in determining the vehicle's future durability, frequency of issues, fuel efficiency, and other performance indicators.
