For people that have this 'tortoise' issue - what is your driving style like?

Irrespective of whether you are doing urban or long distance motorway driving, perhaps your driving is too gentle and thus giving rise to the issue?

By way of example when I have had any new car and 'run it in', I always ignore the 'gentle for so many miles' procedure and drive hard (hard but not stupid) from the get go (obviously when engine is warm).

Regards
