1,2000 mile break-in period and service -- a case for sticking to BMW recommendation

Saw this video that provided a lot of detail on the break-in period and the associated service. If you haven't seen it, worth a watch.

Ignore the click bait title as the video itself is very informative.

The person relaying the information is a BMW technician.

Like I said, ignore the click bait title. If you watch the video it’s more focused on the overall break in service. They even talk about how the diff fluid metal shavings are normal.
