MOTUL FTW!!! hahaha

Basically motul is one of the better oil brands out there.

I use Fuchs Super GTO 10-30w but will be changing to Motul 4100 power or maybe 300v chrono on my next service.

What solution did you use to flush?

aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh finally relief !

all good,
bought this solution for flushing cooling system (cheers matt for the tip) kept the car running for bout 25 min, then drained cooling fluid, had a hose running through for a while as well then got coolant in there

at the same time, had flushing solution in the engine, drained oil (looked rather watery) placed new oil in, ran the car for a while, took it for a 10min drive got back and the temp was sitting at 85 the whole time, left it for another 15min to run, after 10 min got up to 90 thats where the fans kicked in and kept it there

so i would say thats fixed, love it

What solution did you use to flush?

cant remember the name, it says something along the line "flush and clean the engine" at the back it says pour a bottle of that in a existing (old) oil, run the car for bout 20min, than just do a normal oil change
