Re: Dirty black oil

my opinion

1 dont flush it with engine flush [-x
2 only use recomended spec oils
3 you will never get every single drop of oil out of the car unless you take the engine to bits so you will always get discolouration to the oil just maintain correct service intervals and imo avoid the longlife scheme
