Product Information
Full details
The Carlube Engine Flush is designed for car owners and DIY mechanics who want to maximize engine longevity by removing harmful sludge and oil deposits before an oil change. By breaking down contaminants that standard oil changes might leave behind, this treatment helps restore performance and prevents premature oil deterioration; however, it requires the vehicle to remain stationary during the flushing process, meaning it cannot be driven until the process is fully complete and new oil is added.

FAQs
Can I drive the car with the flush inside?
No. The vehicle must remain stationary at idle while the flush is in the system.
How often should I use an engine flush?
It is generally recommended to use an engine flush during every other oil change or if the vehicle has been subjected to short-trip driving, which encourages sludge buildup.
Will this harm my engine seals?
Carlube Engine Flush is formulated with protective additives designed to clean safely without damaging standard engine seals.
Do I need to replace the oil filter?
Yes. It is mandatory to replace the oil filter after using this product, as the filter will trap the sludge and contaminants removed by the flush.
Is this product safe for turbocharged engines?
Yes, it is safe to use in turbocharged engines, provided the product is used strictly according to the directions.
Troubleshooting
Engine oil is too low to add the flush.
Top up the engine with a small amount of clean oil to reach the minimum safe level before adding the treatment.
Difficulty removing the oil filter after flushing.
Use a dedicated oil filter wrench and ensure you are turning counter-clockwise; apply steady pressure as the filter housing can be hot.
Engine oil light remains on after service.
Verify the new oil filter is tightened correctly and the drain plug is secure; check that you have refilled the engine with the manufacturer-recommended oil volume.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, verify your engine oil level is at a safe position on the dipstick. The 300ml bottle is designed for standard passenger vehicle oil capacities; for larger engines, consult your manufacturer's oil capacity requirements to ensure appropriate dosage. Always work on a level surface with the engine off during the refill stage. Safety precautions are essential: wear gloves to avoid skin contact and ensure the vehicle is parked in an area with adequate airflow to manage exhaust fumes during the idle phase. Do not drive the car while the product is circulating in the oil system.
