How Soon After Purchasing a New Car Is It Suitable to Drive on the Highway?
1 Answers
It is suitable when the engine speed reaches above 4000 rpm but below the redline, maintaining this for 10-20 minutes, with each gear being held for 30 seconds to 2 minutes. The purposes of driving on the highway are as follows: 1. Smooth operation: To allow the pistons and camshaft inside the engine to work rapidly for the first time, enabling the transmission gears to rotate at high speed, ensuring smoother meshing between the gears. 2. Smooth gear shifting: High-speed driving can provide the car with better power for future driving, ensuring smooth gear shifting. 3. Carbon deposit removal: When the engine runs at high speed, the fuel supply increases, and the fuel flow rate rises, which helps flush out dirt and impurities in the fuel system, achieving a cleaning effect.
