Is it true that new car must drive slowly until ur first sevices. Probably around 80-90 km/h. I just wondering if it is true.

QUOTE(nakashimakazuma @ Jul 13 2011, 09:34 AM) yes and might be not thats what i though. but didnt they test drive it before they send it to the dealers? i mean to test their top speed n performance for each units?ppl claim engine still new like piston tight la etc etc but u will never know what happen to your engine or car when it take from factory to your hand Added on July 13, 2011, 9:38 am QUOTE(Matrix @ Jul 13 2011, 09:36 AM) No need lar. Just vary your speed, don't try to drive constant speed for too long. My new car terus sapu 140km/h - 160km/h. And i believe they have already run in the engine a bit at factory. thats what i think. My fren said "dont bawak laju2 or the engine n piston will rosak quickly"This post has been edited by jayro_88: Jul 13 2011, 09:38 AM |

QUOTE(felixwang @ Jul 13 2011, 09:52 AM) This is a practice done for more than decades ago. Newly manufactured engine might have splinters trapped in the engine. The engine oil which might carry loose splinters will be changed in a short period of time as a mean to flush out the splinters. Hence, new vehicle is subjected to services as it reaches the first 1,000km mileage. No need 80 or 90 km/h then. Acceleration coupled with high speed travelling will caused the engine oil to rotate faster thus causing possible frictions between the engine inner surface and the splinters. Hence, no "unnecessary" speeding please. |
