Here's what pg 123 of the Acadia owners manual says about break in:
New Vehicle Break-In
Notice: Your vehicle does not need an elaborate break-in. But it will perform better in the long run if you follow these guidelines:
• If you have all-wheel drive, keep your speed at 55 mph (88 km/h) or less for the first 500 miles (805 km).[/color]
• Do not drive at any one constant speed, fast or slow, for the first 500 miles (805 km). Do not make full-throttle starts. Avoid downshifting to brake, or slow, the vehicle.
My question is, why the difference for AWD?[/color]
Second question is, has anybody that bought a AWD had their dealer point this out to them? I got the first one off the lot and I can understand why the dealer didn't know.
