How to Break in a New Car?
1 Answers
New car break-in methods are as follows: 1. Initial break-in: The first 500 kilometers is the initial break-in period, during which the speed should not be too fast, generally below 70-80 km/h, and the engine speed should preferably not exceed 2,200 rpm. 2. Mid-term break-in: 500-1,000 kilometers is the mid-term break-in period, where the maximum speed can be appropriately increased, generally up to 90-100 km/h, with engine speed preferably below 2,500 rpm. Appropriately increasing speed will not affect the engine but can promote break-in, and you can also check for any abnormalities during acceleration. 3. Final break-in: 1,000-1,500 kilometers is the final break-in period, during which the speed can be increased to below 120 km/h. Because break-in is a gradual process, it must be done step by step. The engine speed should not exceed 3,000 rpm.
