Question: How to break in a new engine???

i don't know what u dudes think about it...i am sure most of us are following the way illustrated on our car's front glass,taking it easy for the fist few thousand kilometers, which is the best way to break in a new engine...

or is it?

my mind completely changed after i had seen and applied the things in the link below!!!:msolved:

http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm

i applied this to 2 pairs of identical cars (2 toyota corolla 1.8s and 2 toyota yaris) and the results were astonishing!

ok the one which was pushed hard during the break in period was not beating hard the other but yes! it was beating from 80 to 150 by one car length

some says it is because of the handicap occurred during production some says the engine will not last more than 100k kilometers...

well, just wanted to know what u dudes think of it


PS: I would never push my babe if it was brand new :)

You know what they say when you drive an E39 M5,
Drive it like you stole it:rev:

There is no one solid answer to this topic because the outcomes are subjectively attributed to your belief system. I can hear you thinking why not have 2 identical engines from x manufacturer off of an assembly line, apply both break in regimes, and have them monitored from their hour zero? Well, no 2 engines are 100% identical. You'd be surprised how much a fracture percentage would affect the outcome.

My $0.2 :)

You havent seen my dark side Ayham, but when Im with the Club members I always tend to avoid BMW Club UAE General Rule No 3, which says:

I'm sure a light dose of Red Line Challenge would turn that around !

i did, and the one which was broken in the way stated in the link was beating the other which was not pushed till 5k km

which is exactly what i tried to say

maybe the one broken in like hell was beating the other because of the handicap occurred during production phase

no solid answers but things in the link are logical enough to try, or at least to get my mind confused

anyhow, as i said, would never try it on my babe but it is worth trying to see the difference
