Hello,

Ive yet to do my first oil change on my MK7 but its always better to get all information and parts ahead of time.

Should I do an engine flush from factory oil before switching over to new oil?

can do, I just get engine up to temp & add Wynns flush then do as states on can...

Does is work?? Yep I took some before & after pics (can't find them ATM) on a mates engine ( small 1.4 8v as we had the head off...way cleaner no gunk etc...

If you use good fuel & oils & always do frequent oil changes..I would not do until every say third change...no need for every change..

If you use cheap fuel & cheap oil then I would do a flush using Wynns every oil change...

A new car for its first oil change. NO

An engine that has loads of miles that hasn't had its oil changed enough. Maybe

Only need to do a flush on cars that have not had their oil changed regularly. Wasting time and money any other time.
