How important is the running-in of a new car?

In order for a new car to serve its master with faith and truth for many years, one should treat it very carefully. The initial stage of operation of any machine has a significant value as its further indicators, such as dynamics, speed, economy and long service life. Therefore, wise drivers can not fail to pay attention to such a process as running a new car, which many know about, but not many of them observe. But in vain. The rules that should be adhered to during the first two thousand kilometers are not that complicated.

Little assistants

To help each owner of the new car is accompanied by the manufacturer's instruction, which details the most important points and tips for operating the model, this information should not be neglected. Try to withstand the timing of maintenance, in time to check, top up, change the oils and other fluids recommended by the company that released the vehicle. All this together will become your faithful companion at first, and running a new car will pass almost imperceptibly and without any problems.

A car is a vehicle, and quite expensive, as it will constantly require financial injections for a variety of needs. Therefore, from the very beginning it is necessary to clearly understand this reverse side of the coin. And it does not matter, whether it will be running a new VAZ car or a more "crowned" foreign model, they will demand the same attention from the driver. At first, all the nodes and parts of the machine will "get attached" to each other. That is why it is so important during this period to maintain a sparing operational regime that will help to avoid various breakages and malfunctions, as well as to reach the parameters declared by the manufacturer.

About the most important

And so, below are collected the most important actions, which will require the running in of a new car. Before you sit on the driver's seat, do not be lazy and look under the car - is there no one there is no unnecessary leaks. After starting the engine, carefully listen to the operation of all units - did not there appear any unnecessary noise? At the same time, it will not hurt and take a closer look at the appearance of unauthorized smells. Do not force the engine to idle. It is also not recommended at the first time to switch to the latest gear changes regardless of their number (4/5/6) and type (mechanics / machine). Depending on the ambient temperature - warm or cold, it may be necessary to warm up the engine for about five minutes with engine speed of 1000-1200 units. It is especially important to comply with this clause if running a new car in winter. Every movement of the machine should start smoothly and do not switch to the upper speed ranges until the engine is fully warmed up.

The best option for running a car will be a long distance trip on the country road, where there will not be forced downtime in traffic jams, which entail the inevitable operation of the engine at idle. In this case, it is often necessary to change the speed regimes (except for the upper ranges), keep the engine speed in the range from 2000 to 3000 per minute. And more, you need to keep in mind that you should not exceed the speed exceeding the limit of 80 km / h!

At the conclusion of all of the above, we can draw a conclusion: the running-in of a new car is required for any model, domestic or foreign, and the longer and more correctly this very difficult process is passed, the better indicators the machine will achieve. Careful and attentive attitude to the iron "horse" at any stage of operation will give you real pleasure from any trip.
