Will a Rune do the nickel trick? Reason I asked, a buddy of mine bought a brand new 0 miles 04 Rune a couple of weeks ago and so far we have tried on two different occasions and neither time did the nickel stand up. We even tried it with the engine all ready running and no luck. I must admit mine let the nickel fall over today and I thought something was wrong until I realized there was a Harley running across the parking lot.

It may work after the 5K mile break in period. Even the smoothest engine is a little shakey when new.

I have over 33K on my Rune and it always has done the nickel trick.

Question...where did your buddy find a Rune with zero miles on it?  I thought they were all gone over 2 years ago.
