[QUOTE="Maniac, post: 20967, member: 20491"] Hi fellow enthusiasts, I'd just like to solicit your thoughts on running in a brand new car, should you "drive it like you stole it" or "baby it"?2 schools of thought, both with genuine arguments. I'm tempted to go along the lines that we should crank up the juice from day 1. With the bimmer OBC's recording driving styles, and the like, shouldn't we be getting the car used to being driven like a performance vehicle? Then again, there are dire consequences of wrecking parts of the car by not allowing them to ease into operations. Would love to hear your feedback. In the meanwhile, here are some interesting articles for your leisure reading - check out the piston pics in the 1st article:[URL="http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm"]http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm[/URL][URL="http://www.thedieselstop.com/contents/getitems.php3?Breaking%20in%20a%20Diesel%20Engine"]http://www.thedieselstop.com/contents/getitems.php3?Breaking%20in%20a%20Diesel%20Engine[/URL] [/QUOTE]
