fuck it ...run the shit out of it... I did right from the dealership. The way I look at it is about 90% of use won't keep our cars long enough for any problems to arrise from this. People have the idea of always keeping there car until the next model year comes out. I figure I'll have mine till about 40k.....so it doesn't matter to me since it will be under warranty.

The manual says 600 miles. You're good to go.

I was more careful up to 600 as the book recommends. I do notice that the higher the mileage, the better the car performs.
