Precautions for running a new car at high speed: 1. The load should not be too light or too heavy: When running at high speed, the new car must be in a fully loaded state, otherwise, it will be ineffective. 2. Perform high-speed running after the first maintenance: High-speed running should be done after the first maintenance, as all potential issues with bolt torque and fluid levels will have been checked and resolved, allowing for worry-free driving. 3. Do not run at high speed before an oil change: High-speed running requires not only skill but also the right timing. The quality of the engine oil is a direct factor affecting the engine, so avoid high-speed running before an oil change. 4. Do not stay in the red zone for too long: Prolonged operation in the red zone will significantly increase engine wear and may even cause overheating. Many transmissions also cannot withstand such prolonged heavy loads. 5. Do not operate at low RPM: When running a new car at high speed, the RPM should not be too low. Operating frequently at low RPM can result in insufficient power and sluggish response. Therefore, vary the engine speed between 1500 and 3000 RPM to properly break in the engine. 6. Do not drive at maximum speed: High-speed running is only meant to properly break in various components of the car. Avoid driving at maximum speed, as this will not achieve the goal of high-speed running and may instead cause other issues due to excessive wear on the new car.
