Hi there - My new S3 should be arriving in a matter of weeks now, and I was just wondering what the engine running in procedure is for the S3 ie distance and driving style? I have read contradictory things such as:
1. Don't overdo the power as you will knacker it - less than 4k revs
2. Make sure you use the full rev range
3. Don't use cruise control as it keeps the revs very constant
4. Drive as you would normally even if there is a degree of 'hoonage' so the ECU can learn your technique
Ultimately I want to drive it so the engine ends up with the most power when any running in period is over.
Any comments welcome.
