In Reply to: Engine Break In? I am picking up my x5 tomorrow. posted by Bruck on December 03, 2000 at 22:37:18:

I think the manual said something about keeping it under 4500 rpm for the first 1200. I might have broken that rule a few times in the 1st 200...



Do i need to treat the engine like a baby for a few thousand miles? has it already been bench tested and fluids been replaced and since they use synthetic fluids do i need to break it in ? Thanks.

picking up from morristown at 6pm Topaz 4.4 no sport fully loaded xcept phone.

Thanks.


Lou
