Is there a break in period?
Hi guys, I’ve read mixed thoughts on this. Is there a break in period for say the new Panamera? If so anyone know how many km it is for a break in period?
thanks
thanks

Got it thank you. It’s going to be tough to drive those 3k km and resist the urge to unleash the beast underneath

The odd thing is that my dealer is telling me that there isn’t any break in period as they are already pre broken in prior to delivery. Only thing that needed break in time was hitting high speeds I think exceeding 180k/h
Anyone have any thoughts on this or suggestions?

If the owner's manual, which is written by Porsche, says that their Panameras need to be broken in, it doesn't matter what the dealer says, or even a mechanic. Follow the manual if you care about your car; that goes for other things like what octane fuel you use, and how often you do oil changes and maintainance. I don't understand anybody who would say to ignore the manual. Why risk it, especially in such a high-cost, high-performance car?
