[QUOTE="B33mEr, post: 319576, member: 13609"] I think our engine is quite a low revving engine (for M54 anyways) and to drive like a bat out of hell before 1200 miles will definitely put unnecessary strain on d silky smooth inline six ... plus it will exacerbate d Vanos seal issue and not to mention gearbox, brakes, tires and etc that needs to break in as well. You're right about d user manual from lawyers perspective :top: in fact you can add from the accountants point of view too... imagine d cost of repairing of engines and drivetrains that are still under warranty if everyone were to drive their car like they stole it during the break-in period. BMW wouldn't be offering extended warranties i can tell you that. [/QUOTE]
