Ya... I'm staying off the highways and just driving through traffic. When I do find myself on an open long road, I get into a higher gear and accelerate to 4000rpm then let go and let the revs return to 2500rpm. I then accelerate to 4000rpm again. It's a ballache but hey...

Yip stop and go is the best for running in the engine so back roads will be great with robots and stuff. Stay of the highway tho, that driving style is annoying lol. :fishwack:

Been in Berlin since last week. So haven't driven her. I must say, I am really missing her.

900km to go before she is run in. Only problem is im a couple thousand Km away... will try get the final KM done asap when I get back home.

She's run in.

:fencelook:

Wednesday she returns to Peter to have proper oil and fluids put in her. Engine oil at the moment is a thin oil used to help run the engine in. We will be putting in Liqui Moly fully synthetic 10w-60, The Gearbox oil will be changed to Redline D4 ATF, as per Turner Motorsports suggestions. I don't think the transmission oil has ever been replaced on this M3. So I'm hoping to get a smoother shifting action out of this fluid change.

Peter will be checking Valve clearance again once I drop her off, and then he and I will be doing a full suspension check before taking her out for her first 8000rpm pull.

This weekend, if all goes well, she will possibly go hunting. :fencelook:

Looking forward to it.
