    Important thing after the break in, you need alignement as the chassis is now in his final place.

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    Super thanks for the breakdown. Some more questions 

    1. When you moved the revs up did you keep the engine for any given duration at the max rev range or would not exceed the revs at any point or both. 

    2. After the breakin period did you do an oil and filter change? I know they say 15000 but old school says change after breakin period to remove all metal bits that come off. 


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    Do you mean wheel alignment?

    1. just don't cross the rpm line. no need to stay there for no reason.

    2. I did oil change after 1,500kms then on track Smiley

    3. yes wheel alignment because suspensions will seat in their final position and all chassis part as well as brakes, axles etc...

    Not a flipper waited 2.5 years for my 991.2 RS just like to know every detail. For me passion means I have knowledge as well and I like to know everything. 

    Welcome to the party and enjoy the new girl  wink

    Hey buddy. 

     

    Its latest version of the GT3 RS 2018 just took delivery two days ago so do I keep it under 4000 for first 2000 miles or follow the previous posts breakin recommendation

    1. Both for me .  Most important is  '' changes '' . Do as less highway driving as possible . Choose back roads with lots of speed changes . If highway, then still , change your speed as often as you can , change gears as often as you can . 

    Don't stress the engine with driving in  too low rpm  and accelerating . 

    2. I did an oil change at 3000 km . Just to be safe even if the manual says 15k

    Ok Guys I have my friend at AMG checking with a guy who works at the factory and is part of the GT3 RS program. Will let you all know what he says as well. At the moment have 100 km will drive it like a granny taking her grandchild to school for however long it takes. :-)


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    The one important thing to remember is to get the fluids up to temperature first before revving!

    ZahirD:

    Ok thanks buddy. Also can you give me a proper breakin procedure for the engine there are some things online but don’t know how reliable they are and the manual says nothing funny enough. 1540961714262image.jpg1540961739112image.jpg

    I love that color!!! nice choice.

    For me the best for all my cars :

    KM_______MAX RPM

    0-499_______ 5k

    500_________5k5

    700_________6k

    900_________6k5

    1100________7k

    1300________7k5

    1500________8k

    1700________8k5

    1900________9k

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    Thanks it was a bit of a chance on the colour. It looked like it would work when configuring the car on the online app. But you never know what it would really look like. I had seen a 911 at some point in London in this colour driving on the road.  it’s not a very common colour for a Porsche. But on this car with the black vents and the gold rims it looks very nice. Plus the interior colour is only black as a choice so it works well with the interior. 


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    Hi Zahir,

    Welcome and what a beautiful car! I think the white/black RS looks really clean and purposeful!
    Would you mind showing some pictures of the side view, so we can see the combination between the black/white and the gold rims?

    Cheers,
    -Joost-

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    Hey Joost 

    I My dog loves to run out as soon as he hears the garage door open. If I am not there he goes around the neighbourhood for a walk himself and comes home after an hour. Then he gets a good shouting from the Mrs who by the way is from Belgium near Maastricht. So we are neighbors as well.

    Haha nice! Gotta love dogs! Nice to meet you, neighbor! :-)
    Hadn't expected it , but the gold rims look really nice on the white! Thanks for posting  and take care breaking it in! Can imagine it must be really difficult restraining yourself for those first couple of 1000s of kms.kiss

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    yes I am driving like a grandma hehehehe. It’s not white it’s Crayon which is like a light grey works well with the black trims. 


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    First of all ZahirD Congrats to a perfect car!

    I've been away from Rennteam driving for a week at the Ring: See what happens!  This thread is on-topic for several pages!

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    Ok thanks. I want to drive there next summer. Not my car of course but maybe Porsche will give me one of theirs hehehe

    Depending on your driving skill: How to approach the Nordschleife:

    1 Study the track, video game, video, learn where the corners are and what name they have - it helps

    2 Rent a slow car - Suzuki Swift is really good. Drive there when it is cold and rainy just to learn the track layout

    3 When you are familiar with the track: Faster cars, coaching, track days, Scuderia Hanseat.

    I'd say that after 50 laps you know the track fairly good.

    You have until March April 2019 to prepare yourself  :-)


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    I believe the translation is Chalk not Crayon. 


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    Chalk = Crayon


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    Just heard that there will be a second batch of 3RS.


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    I don’t know but in the Middle East site the colour is called Crayon maybe in Europe they call it something else. 9E1B23B4-539F-4025-93A4-ACE1B805D250.png

    I can't tell you. I'm sorry. But I'm sure it is correct.


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)

    Hey guys I need some help.  just wanted to ask there is a loud squeak from the gearbox or axel when the car is rolling in gear in traffic without pressing the accelerator is this normal and there is a clear vibration coming feels like there is no oil in the gearbox or axel. And it’s quite loud the squeak.

    I am not sure what your noise is exactly , but the car does have some ' mechanical ' noises when rolling ,or going very slowly . Not much, but some noise like metal frictions . This would be normal . In the 991.1 RS those noises where much much louder .
