WHAT IS the proper way to break in a new 6mt

I beleive from what I've read and personal experience the only thing that needs to be broken in properly is the engine not 100% on the mileage but I've read not to go above 4000rpm for I think the first 1500 miles you'd have to do search it should say in the manual.

Yea thats standard. But why would you even want to deal with problems EVEN if your within warranty? What happens when you're out of warranty?...You still have a history of problems...some which are bound to repeat or lead to more problems down the line when your out of warranty. But to each his own.

I agree...drive it like you stole it...and yes I am serious....and yes I have read all the opinions for and against break in....and yes I know they redline it at the factory...and yes I know that the manual says break it in...and yes I know why the manual says break it in....and yes I know about modern manufacturing processes and tolerance and compression and ring seals and blow by....and knowing all of this....my advice is
Drive it like you stole it.
P.S. Do a search and you will find numerous posts on this topic. People like me...and people like your momma who says don't swim until an hour after eating....which is another legend with no scientific fact.
