Diesel Break-In differences vs. Gasoline engines
Have never owned a diesel car and am pretty set on switching to a 35d in August.
Wondering if owners have engine "break-in" advice for a potential Diesel newbie. Are there differences? If so, how did you break-in your diesel engine? For gasoline I stayed below 4500 RPMs for first 1000 miles and varied the speed and RPMs periodically. I got an oil change after first 1000 miles as well. What are the recommendations for the Diesel engines? Any help appreciated. Tried searching for "Diesel break-in" and just got a lot of posts with the word "diesel" in them so I apologize if this has been covered before. Thanks in advance. |
