I would love to see an oil report from someone who has not followed the break in period recommendations.

I’m already past my break in, so I’m enjoying the car but was curious if anyone had done this for comparison purposes

Break in your engine the way your comfortable with. I have had 8 brand new German vehicles and I take it easy till the engine is at full operating temp and then I drive/ride it hard. I make sure I decel hard to. Then give it a proper cool down before I get home. My engines have never had problems or used oil. even with 100-150k oil usage was less than half a quart at 5-8k oil changes. My mpg have always been better than the vehicle averages. Seat them rings good!

Please don’t follow the above “break it in hard” advice. Worst wives tale/myth ever perpetuated on the automotive public. Be patient, follow the recommended break in. Just because one may get away with the “hard” method does NOT mean that’s what’s best for your engine and your investment.
