Yaris break-in period - Toyota Yaris Forums

There's a list of breaking in suggestions in the manual so I would think Toyota suggests a break in and your dealer is wrong. Check that to see what exactly they suggest. I forget everything but I remember something about not remaining the same speed for long periods of time (meaning no cruise control at first).

Pretty sure that was only for the first 500 miles...or was it 1500? Anyway, yeah, check that manual...it should be like your toilet-reader gospel until you know it by heart

I did the break-in period my way... didn't keep a steady speed but I also didn't baby it. I drive fast & hard & the car has to handle it. You can't be caught on the north GA highways going under the speed limit without getting run over!
