How Long Should a New Car Be Driven at High Speed?
1 Answers
It generally requires driving about 10 kilometers. During high-speed driving, pay attention to gear shifting, speed control, and clutch usage. The correct method for high-speed driving is as follows: 1. Driving at low and high RPMs: When driving at low RPMs, keep the engine above 3000 RPM before shifting gears. Maintain each gear for a period to ensure the pistons and gears operate under various conditions, achieving the purpose of high-speed driving. 2. Switch to manual mode: For automatic transmission cars, switch to "manual mode" or use low gears for adjustment. 3. Maintain engine RPM: Keep the engine RPM between 3000-5000. 4. Avoid "high-speed driving" before the first maintenance: Refrain from "high-speed driving" before the first maintenance, as it can cause severe engine wear. High-speed driving for a new car is primarily to reduce engine carbon deposits, not for breaking in major components.
