VIN flag >5500 rpm before break in? True?
The 3 managers at my dealer kept saying keep it under 5500 because if you exceed this bmw automatically flags your VIN at the break in service and the car can no longer be CPO, resulting in significantly lower residual value. My questions are 1) anyone heard of this? 2) can they charge you on lease return? 3) are they just covering their ass because the answer to 1) is yes and the answer to 2) is no, thus necessitating them to eat less profit in the pooper on lease return. I looked for threads on other models as well and cannot find any specifically addressing this.
