Does exceeding 3000 kilometers mean the break-in period is over for a new car?

[SanLucy]

Exceeding 3000 kilometers does not mean the break-in period is over for a new car. Definition of the break-in period: A new car is considered to be in the break-in period within the first 5000 kilometers. Although the engine of a new car undergoes cold break-in before leaving the factory, this process cannot replace the actual break-in during use. When starting the engine, it is particularly important to warm up the new car. The owner should wait until the water temperature gauge needle moves and the idle speed on the tachometer decreases before driving. Precautions during the break-in period: Avoid emergency braking, as it not only shocks the braking system during break-in but also increases the impact load on the chassis and engine. It is best to avoid emergency braking within the first 300 kilometers of driving. Additionally, overloading a new car during the break-in period can cause damage to the mechanical components.
