Has anyone used the above on an Oil change??

My cars on 75k now and i'm planning to do an oil change pretty soon.

We used this product about 5 yrs ago on all customers cars and had some engine failures with it so I would strongly recommened not to use it:dapprove:

depends how knackered the engine is really. A very dirty gummed up engine is probably best left without using it as you can disturb buildup. On an engine that's had oil in for too long and it's a bit neglected and maybe slightly tappy it's no bad thing at all. On a well maintained engine it's pointless

Cheers for your input everyone.

Danny do you think it would do any harm to a 40k Mile 206 engine with noisy tappets. I wanted to try engine flushing it before having the tappets re-guaged as it may prove the cheaper way to get rid of the noise before i sell it.

Im a bit confused as to whether to give a go on the clio now as i don't really want the engine to fail on me but i'd like to think i was doing the engine some good by flushing it out.

used this at my old work for over 5 years and not had any problems

and does work at quitening tappets down, as ive done it before on a few cars, just put it in and leave to idle for 20 mins etc, dont drive it tho. then just change the oil as normal
