How long is the break-in service?

s0ul · 12-20-2015, 01:25 AM

I'm curious as to how long the break-in service is? Can I just sit in the lobby or will it be a few days?

I'd like to plan this out as I am going to do a PCD delivery and hit 1200 miles in 1 day to my home dealership for service.

Cheers

Mine was 2 hours total of waiting. I also had to get an inspection done at the same time so I'm sure that added a little to the wait. It'll also depend what time you book it, if it's later in the day and they are a bit backed up expect to wait longer. Having them wash and/or vacuum will also add 15-20 minutes.

I made an appointment and it took less than an hour and a half.

Mine took a full day and I snagged a loaner. Didnt feel like waiting around for it.

Not too long. 2-3 hours at most but with the F8x or any expensive cars dealerships tends to just give you a loaner if you request one early.

Like, make the appointment for the break-in service, but tell them I got work to do etc, please let me a loaner. They will usually comply. USUALLY, not all dealerships are nice.

unless there is a wait it is done in less than an hour , all they do is change engine oil and differential oil and overall check of the car
