Hello, I have a few questions about getting in – especially about the new 1.8 Civic. Mine is to be delivered in August. How do you drive your car? How fast is the 1.8 in the 6th gear with 3500 rpm? How fast is one in the other gears with 3500 rpm? I have always handled it as follows. The first 1000 kilometers never driven at full speed and never turned over 3500 rpm. Of course I deliberately avoided motorways so that the speed is not always constant. Then the speed (almost always without full throttle) slowly increased. Between 1000 km and 2000 km to 4000 1/min. Between 2000 km and 3000 km to 5000 1/min and after 4500 km also once short to the limiter. Of course I warmed the engine before 15 to 30 minutes and I did not constantly turn the engine up. I normally drive up to 4000 1/min with my car through the area. Only with one overtaking and on the highway it becomes a little more. Greetings. Bernd
