Kind request for a Pictured DIY (PDIY) on how to do an engine flush with oil replacement, one of the most commonly asked maintenanceance jobs.
I had my truck lubricated at a reputable service center.
The service man missed a few lube nipples if I had not printed out previous PDIY lubrication prpcedures and showed it to him. No tips for him! Just kidding, you cant blame the guy for being unfamilar with a Rover.
Which goes to show that even if you don't do it yourself the PDIY serves as a very useful guideline for other generic mechanics.
If anyone out there who is about to do an engine flush please make a PDIY for me and for other Rover owners.
Thanks in advance.

 

Why do you need a picture of someone drain their engine oil just to do a flush?
Just drain the old, add 6 quarts of ATF, let the engine idle for 20 minutes, don't drive it, and then do a normal oil change.
This is not rocket science.

 

Hmm, that's simple enough. Thanks.

 

Make sure that you use the correct number of quarts of oil.
I do not know how many quarts your 300tdi takes...6 quarts is for a DII with the V8.
DI V8 takes 7 quarts.

 

Ok I have to ask what does the ATF fluid do?

 

ATF is a high detergent, extremely fine molecure fluid that will really break up and clean the crap out of your engine.
