Which mileage is consider run-in period?
anyway, rims brand isn't important, right? most important is the tyres? what brand wont be so slippery? last time i heard yokohama is bad? any recommendation?
The first 1600km or 1000 miles as stated in your manual.
Thanks Jazz, haven't collect my ride yet so have no idea. Within run-in period, speed should not exceed 80km/h?
Well, I have read many articles about run in period. Focus on your RPM instead of speedometer. Many have their own views regarding this run in period thing, but most commonly people will tell you try not to exceed 2500rpm and hard braking. But I did whack up to 4000rpm unintentionally during my run in period when I try to over take.
What about those who buy test drive car?Even worse.Already red lined countless times from the start for at least 1,000km before it is sold at a $1,000 discount.
Either ignorant or desperate for the 1k discount lor...I almost tot of buying a Mazda2 show room car....then found out tat it is only 1k discount....so didn't buy....
When I bought my first car abt 3 yrs ago...no one told me tat I should not wack the rpm to above 2500....so within 1st week of car collection....i wack it above 4000rpm....then when the car is abt 8 mth old....i drove it to malacca....then...the car feels kind of ko yak after tat....nowadays....i dun drive my new car to malaysia again....i think some car can't take long distance drive....
