I think it was 3 or 4 months before I had to figure that out...

Funny, I just posted this observation in another thread. When breaking in a new car it is critical to go easy on braking for a few hundred miles until the rotors and pads get friendly with each other. If you do not do this, you risk damaging the rotors. Steering wheel wobble and brake pedal shudder when braking are the two symptoms of this damage.

actually when you have new brakes you need to brandish them first by speeding up and slamming on the brakes. taking it easy on them does not allow the brakes and rotors to become friendly.

look at step ten...

Are you thrilled with the RSpec?


I am thrilled with my R-spec. My breaks work fine and I did take it easy for the first 600 miles, but it had 190 on the meter when I got it. I also stayed pretty much between 2 and 4k rpm's like is suggested. Just do the manual shift to stay betweenn the 2 and 4 k, you will use more gas but hopefully it will be beneficial in the long run. No issue's with streaming either, you first have to pair your phone to the car. I love my Genny
