Thin oil is all the rave. So is ring failure. As my engines age, I increase viscosity. No smoke or oil usage with 3000 mile changes. Syn oil is very clean. Gas cleaner keeps gas blowby to a minimum. No prob unless 0w20 oil is used. 5w30 is my minimum now! 10w40 in my older v8 and generators in summer. 10w30 winter small engines syn blend works fine. I go 50/50 syn, syn blend these days in older gens that state conv oil only. Yes they are old, like 4000 hours! Lol. Works for me with 100 hour oil changes max!

I bought a brand new Dodge Dakota and I received coupons for 12 oil changes. First time I hit 3000 miles, I went to the dealership to get my oil changed. The asshole mechanic recommended an engine oil flush with a vehicle with barely 3K miles. The cost was $800. I said no. He kept pushing it. He wouldn't take no for an answer. I just said "give me my keys" and left. I gave away the truck after over 200K miles. I assumed that the mechanic didn't want to honor the free oil change. That dealership went out of business.

Like your video. I have a hybrid and I disagree that you do not need to flush if you do regular oil changes. I use 10000 mile semisynthetic oil and premium filter, change every 3000 and it still burns oil and creates lot of sludge. Hybrid toyota oil scraper piston rings block very easily and oil sludge begins. Other modern toyota engines have that problem too, like RAV4. Your engine should work more efficiently now.

Not a good idea. Putting in a flush can loosen up pieces of solid material. If you leave in the old filter, the material can bypass the filter and block up an oil passage.

Do an oil change with cheap oil and a cheap oil filter dive a few 100kms then flush if it's the first time you are doing it in a older car that way you are not overloading the oil with with crap.

That is considered heavy engine varnish with signs of sludge formation (black spots). Its a sliding scale from silver -> gold (varnish) -> dark gold (heavy varnish) -> black (sludge) I have an 04 Honda Civic w/135k miles and underneath its valve covers it looks almost brand new. Lot of engines are neglected and people assume gold is good, gold is OK on a high mileage engine, not great but OK and not a deal breaker. If i saw that on a engine with less than 100k miles i would avoid it, that is a sign its been ran into the ground.

Thus these treatment work. Oh BTW way beyond 230K miles and it is still running! Oil consumption has been under control the oil was Not Syn but Regular motor oil changed every 3,333 miles. Totally disagree Flush when needed. It is bath for the engine. Or just quit taking baths...... LOL
