Update CEM oilflush

nothing out of the ordinary to report.

still getting 700k plus from a 70 litre load of fuel (and i am not a slowly does it driver as rocket will attest) and the motor runs great imho

i am about out of fuel additive so will be getting more of it as i think it definetly makes a difference. I am actually running a tank full of fuel without the additive at the moment and i can feel the difference when the motor is cold.

I run shell distallite and penrite hpr15 diesel oil.

i follow the instructions on the bottle of oil flush and add a bit 1/2hr running time before dropping the oil, works out well as i work 1/2hr from home. due for another change in about 2000 klms. Last oil change there was no noticeable amount of extra oil on the drop pan.

i have enough of the oil additive for a few more changes, and i will be buying more of it.

i think it is money well spent, but i am just a dumb fitter that now fixes computers for a living ....

Cheers Mate,

I will be buying the CEM value kit once I have my TDI up and running.

Ordered mine today, I got the value pack. Will let you know how it goes on a 4BD1

Has anyone run this stuff through the TD5 yet? I'm just wondering how it will go with the centrifuge.

Took my new (for me) disco 1 Tdi to a diesel specialist in Bundy for its first service with me (230000K). I supplied all the consumables including the cem oil flush.

Mechanic was very hesitant to use it in my engine claiming it was abrasive and not such a good idea for an engine with so many K's.

Took his word for it this time but still thinking of using it when I change the oil at 5000K's.

Is it safe to use? Are there valid opinions for not using it?

Cheers

Sean

As an update:

still using the CEM oil treatment at each oil change as per their instructions and i have gotta say it is still getting better. 189000 ks up on the unit now and it has way more get up and go than it had when i bought it.

This week i did 759k's on 69 litres of juice.

I am no longer using CEM fuel treatment as i am trying out a bottle of "Fuel Doctor" on DiscoTdi's recommendation. It appears to be as good as the CEM product.
