just bought abt 3 mths old car….dunno i drive up to kl and genting. is it ok?

bismarck SG

i dont think so. better let yr engine run in first..

mercuryaw SG

For a 3 months old car, I believe the engine would have already broken-in. What is the mileage like? If anything above 1000km and the previous owner had done the 1st 1000km servicing, it should br no problems at all. Wink

I think you can start ramming after the 5000kn mileage. It should be OK!

2004Lancer SG

NO! never ram up to 4000rpm especially u r going all the way up KL and Genting and it is a new engine....recommended is 2000-3500rpm if you have to....even if u have to reach 4000rpm, keep it for a while....

I saw cars as new as SFJ plate going @ 150-160km/hr...SEOW!!!!

Lancer947 SG

Oops, I start ramming mine after 3000km mileage. Crying or Very sad But so far, so good. No problem with my engine Wink .

But good to take 2004Lancer's advice. take 3500 as a limit for new car....

Nissan X-trail.

Very smooth when i keep her at 2500 rpm and below.

at 3000rpm my car senses there is a 'occasion'. becomes very responsive and purrs like a woman in heat.

at 5500rpm and 180 bhp i am god on the road. i can accelerate from 100kmh to 180kmh in 12.5 seconds.

johncooper SG

Alamak ... went past that many times at the NSE already ... now no big deal to clear meter ...

NExt challange ... to catch up and over take malaysian cars!!! Mr. Green

But seriously speaking ... they are DAMN F***ing FAST! Shocked

highview SG

diffcult to gauge run in time.. it depends on car make.. most recommends after 5K .... but driving to KL/genting is no prob. if u keep rpm low...

dameit SG

but i see malaysian cars run like tortise….sg car run like hell. especially those with big engine. i see kancil cars run like tortise with only one leg…......kahkahkahhhh

sirlee SG
