Sorry, but that's just B.S.

Dude, I noticed you're a mod here, but you and Accord1278 are simply wrong, wrong, WRONG about this.

For anyone interested, you do NOT have to drive like grandma for the first 1000 miles, or even the first 500 miles. The best thing for engine break-in is to explore the full range of engine speed during the first 500-600 miles. So don't be afraid to take her up to 80 now and then, just avoid redlining on your way there. About the only other thing to DEFINITELY avoid during break-in is use of cruise control. Like I said, you want to make sure you vary engine speed as much as possible during this period. Also, the oil that comes in Honda engines from the factory contains more molybdenum than normal oil and should be left in until 3000-5000 miles to allow this anti-friction metallic additive to fully coat the inside of your engine.
