Default new H3 owner

Hello,

My name is Jeff and I just picked up my H3 over the weekend. Got a great deal with all the 0% and discounts I got. I love it so far. Only complaint is man she is slow. lol I am ordering a K&N kit for it and I have my buddy checking to see if SCT makes a flasher for it.

WELCOME to our Forum!

A word of advice though. We have had some members here experiencing major mileage loss and we aren't sure why. Make sure you break your H3 in the way the manual states before you put any Mods on it. You don't want to be getting 10 mpg like a couple of our members do!

Wow what is causing that? I usually brake my new cars in for the first 1000 miles or so. Just driving normal and trying not to go high in the rpms. What have they been doing? thanks for the tip tho.

I don't think they have been doing anything wrong really. As far as we can guess, they just may need their ECU flashed again, but don't let it scare you off You should be fine. Just don't go pulling any trailors or drive it hard for the break-in period stated in the manual. Follow the instructions
