Default Are you starting **** again? :-) Dr. GP and Moto-Man sitting in tree... just marry him already
Of course I am teasing you. I don't know whether or not it played a role but my break-in was aggressive within Audi guidelines and I burned about quart during the first 1500 miles but minimal since then. Thanks for carrying the aggressive break-in torch.
