-- After installing new parts (engine/partial engine, cylinder head or turbocharger), the oil pressure regulation is to be limited to the high pressure stage for approximately 1000 km, as long as this function is available in the engine control module. From this, the higher friction is taken into account when breaking in new components, and the optimum removal of particles from the initial wear in is ensured.
