S srhutch Legend East Sussex, UK Jul 8, 2012 #2 It won't have do it any harm, some BMW bulletins advise the customer to drive the car hard. They need a good clean out. Modern diesels need a good clean out at least once a week to stop the DPF from bunging up.

T T2FFN Senior member East Yorkshire Jul 8, 2012 #7 I used to have an RX8 and they 'had' to be redlined at least once a day to clean off carbon deposits to stop the wankel engine dying. 9500rpm once a day keeps the greasy mechanic away.
