I believe for any new engine you have to keep it calm for the first 500-1000 miles to be properly broken-in but again many people believe they have to drive their car hard from the first day.

But seriously 110km/h in first gear? it should be very long gear ratio... almost the same gear ratio of second gear of M5/M6 MDCT

I recall asking my sales agent "this is my car right ... so I can do what I want on test drive?" He said absolutely! My Sales Agent was Red in the face and said he has never felt or seen a test drive like that ... needless to say he is still my sales guy, but never asked me for another mandatory test drive at Deliver and we have now done 4 Three Pointed deliveries from him vs the 3 BMW deliveries ... Chalk it up to an experience ... had to get rid of the 2011 S63 ASAP They did warranty the spark plugs and re-tune 6 times in 3 years ... got rid of it before warranty was up BUT WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!!! all at the same time I still see the 2011 S63 from time to time around town ... biting my lip

I broke all rules for all of my cars and never have have any engine trouble or consumes oil. If a engine is going to be bad, it will probably be bad no matter how you break it in. There are people here who follow the rules, never have problems, but many still consumes oil. And there are people here who break it in hard, no problems, but some consumes oil too. All this just means, doesn't really matter what you do. Personally I do WOT when I get the new car a few times to seat the rings, change oil, and then I follow the rules for the rest of 1200 miles to break in other parts of the car like the gearbox. |

I was driving as the break in procedure suggests not more than 5000 rpm. First 100km engine braking and never full throttle but even with half throttle I got to 6000 rpm couple of times unfortunately. So at 1.800km car is asking for 1 liter of oil. So I didn't add one liter and instead completed break in procedure. Engine oil and differential oil is changed.
Why was it asking for oil??? And is it ok to complete break in procedure at 1.800km?? |

I did WOT break in on my X5M and it doesn't consume oil. I will do the same for my new M6 and see what happens, maybe I just got lucky the first time. |

Update on my break-in or lack of break-in in this case. Got my PPF installed last week and now just shy of 200 miles... at this rate who knows when/if 1200 miles will come. SA told me that the 1200 mile check is 1200 miles or 3 months so I expect I'll be taking it in for break-in service in the new year.
