How many miles did your car take before you thought in was properly broken in. Engine wise

 

Check your manual. I think it is around 1000km (500 miles or so)

 

The manual says around 500 i think. Don't quote me tho.

 

Hmm..I thought it was 5000 miles for the engine and supercharger.

 

just run it to redline from mile 1

 

ya, but i heard that it runs smoother and the supercharger gets to max psi faster when the motor has over a few thousands miles. Have you guys noticed this

oh boy.

 

engine is broken in from the factory.

 

Incorrect. Please read manual.

 

i normally go 3000miles.

 

I hope you are just bsing. lol

 

nope, pretty sure the engine is broken in already. you want to break in the brakes, and the clutch, and some of the other components. but the question was ENGINE wise, which i'm almost positive is already broken in from the factory.

 

when i bought my first car new they said 500 miles so the pistons wouldn't misshape into cone shapes

 

does it smoke?
does it leak?

if you answered no to these questions.
stand on it.

 

it didn't matter for mine even though I babied it until the first oil change

I guy I work with broke the news to me, after months of owning it, that he drag raced it when it was new up against another SS S/C from work. I almost decked the guy. He knew I was going to buy it because of the miles and the fact that I thought it wasn't abused.

 

First 100 miles

People who wait thousands of miles to beat on there car cracks me up.

 

this is the age old arguement that will never be solved. just do what you think is right...your car is on warrenty and if **** breaks it gets fixed. romp the new ride if you want to or if you are worried about it go easy on her

 

gm test the motor before installed in the vehicle

drive it like you will most of the time

 

i waited 2000 miles be4 the first beat run.

 

i waited 400-500 miles

 

people will try and convince you its ready to beat on from day one.

I will never agree with that. no matter what the engineers tell you.
I will give my car 500 miles to settle down till the day I die.

id rather be wrong, than sorry.

 

couldn't put it better myself!

 

got the car with 3 miles on it
been beating the hell out of it since never let off
i was taught the way you break it in is the way it will perform
going 41000 strong

 

To each their own i guess... But the manual does say 500 miles.

 

nope nope wrong answer engine will be properly broken in after first oil change

 

well, I didn't drive exactly the same for the first 3k miles....I varied my driving, but I certainly didn't beat the **** out of it
