Tips for Running In
The following tips will be helpful in obtaining
optimum performance from your new Porsche.
Despite the most modern, high-precision manufac-
turing methods, the “wearing in” of moving parts
with each other cannot be completely avoided.
This wearing in occurs mainly in the first 3,000 km
(1,865 miles).
During the first 3,000 km (1,865 miles) you
should:
f Preferably take longer trips.
f
Avoid frequent cold starts with short-distance
driving whenever possible.
f
Not participate in motor racing events, sports
driving schools or similar.
f Avoid high engine speeds, especially when the
engine is cold.
Oil and fuel consumption
The oil and fuel consumption may be somewhat
higher than normal during the running-in period.
f Please observe the chapter “TECHNICAL
DATA” on page 236.
Bedding in new brake pads and brake
discs
New brake pads and brake discs have to be
“bedded in”, and therefore only attain optimal
friction when the vehicle has covered several
hundred km or miles.
The slightly reduced braking ability must be
compensated for by pressing the brake pedal
harder. This also applies whenever the brake pads
or brake discs are replaced.
Running in new tyres
f
Please note: new tyres at first do not possess
their full road-holding ability.
The new tyres should therefore be broken
in by driving at moderate speeds for the first
100 - 200 km (60 - 120 miles).
