Dont forget you've got oil lines that get V hot from the turbo (and I've seen your Mani glowing) which can carbonise the oil and leave deposits IIRC.

The flush treatment helps dislodge the deposits.

So yes, next time do it and make sure its upto to temp before you drain.

good point stu!

in that case il do it 2mo...


as for seein my mani glow...

Yeh thats the stuff I've used, Like Daz mentioned - DO NOT drive around with it in the oil . It kinda thins it down to an almost watery consistantcy so follow the instructions to the letter
