ok had my 2000km service and the car is perfect!!!!... it used no oil in this time and the car seems louder and more smoother after the service ... its on 2400km now

this is how i drove her in

For the 1st 900km i did not go over the 5500RPM ... after 900km, i pushed the car ... but everytime i drove the car id do the following:

1. Id drive off immediately after starting the car, but id leave the car in D1 mode and keep it under 3000km until the oil warmed up to the middle mark, i always make sure the oil is warm, before pushing the car even over 3000RPM
2. Id then push the car, test the 5500RPM band for a bit then push it a little more to 7000RPM and then some red lining as well ... id vary my engine speed a lot ...
3. Cool down the car by driving slowly again until the oil temp dropped to about the 100 mark again, when at home, let it idle for a wee bit and then switch off ...
