1 Answers
The break-in period for the BMW 3 Series is 2,000 kilometers. Break-in period precautions: Warm up before starting: Before starting, turn the key to the second position and wait 5-10 seconds before ignition. This allows the fuel pump to begin working, adjusting oil pressure and fuel injection volume. Starting after a few seconds benefits the car's starter motor and engine. After the engine starts, you can begin driving as long as stable RPM is maintained. Control your speed appropriately until the engine coolant reaches normal operating temperature, then you may drive normally. During the break-in period, avoid sudden acceleration and hard braking. New vehicle initial driving regulations: Avoid high-speed driving. When the throttle is fully open, speed should not exceed 80% of the maximum speed. Monitor the engine tachometer and speedometer to ensure both engine RPM and vehicle speed operate at moderate levels. Generally, the engine RPM during the break-in period should be strictly maintained between 2,000-4,000 RPM.
