2015 S63 4Matic

My S63 engine was built by Marc Ditze. I'm following the 5 lines of running-in instruction under 4500 rpm and under 85 mph. Anyone else have a motor built by Marc Ditze? Does anyone have better running-in instruction?

Happy Day!!
Randall

Just don't run at the same RPM for long periods of time such as 60 to 65 mph for an hour you want the engine to experience variable RPM levels

Okay so I'm shifting manually and just driving around town. Varing the RPM and speed. After a 1000 miles it say "increase load slowly"

Thanks Man!!

You don't need to shift manually, just do a variety of driving for the first 1000-1500 miles
