Oil flush.

Post by richyb83 »

As it was a sunny afternoon I decided to change the oil and for the first time used a oil flush. 5 mins in at idle then changed for my normal oil and filter. I was pretty sceptical about it making a difference but the drive after did seem smoother and quieter. Anyone else had any experience with these? I'm just not sure if its me imaging things to be better as I've just spent the extra time and effort on the flush or if they actually are.

I use Forte flush before an oil change in my HDi and it helps keep the new oil in good condition for longer.

If you sent it into a puggy dealer for an oil change they will do exactly the same thing, with the same stuff.
