Hi All ,
What is the recommended break-in mileage for our cars? Any special care should be taken during break-in period?
Thanks in advance

 

600 miles no hard acceleration or braking

 

Oh, by the way, WELCOME to the forums!

 

Thank you vikrampatel!

 

Nikko, welcome aboard and congrats on your new ride. One of the very first things I learned when I joined was to check out the Garage thread. It has a lot of info for our cars and you'd be surprised at what is there. One of the other things is using the "Search" feature. It's really helpful if you have a question about a certain topic. Again, welcome and enjoy your ride as much as you enjoy driving your TL.

 

what about first oil change, how many miles? was thinking of doing it myself unless it's cheap somewheres in socal.

and what oil? i havent read the om yet. shame on me.

 

Yes, shame on you. lol There are two things that you should consider doing: 1) read the manual, and 2) go to the 3G garage where you will find a plethora of info regarding break-in period and oil/filter recommendations. There is usually more information on this forum than you will ever use. Oh, you will find the "search" feature helpful too.

 

Change the oil when the MID tells you to change the oil. The technology in the car is acurate. Change it only when needed, because it will adapt to your driving conditions.

 

First oil change took me about 3600 miles.
