BMW 5 Series Engine flush

Why does my BMW 5 Series need an engine flush?

An engine flush is a liquid chemical cleaning composition that’s designed to remove and dissolve sludge, gunk, carbon deposits and wear debris, from inside a BMW 5 Series’s internal combustion engine.

The engine flush is mixed with the engine oil, then circulated through the BMW 5 Series engine for a few minutes, before the oil is drained. All in the aid of cleaning the oil lubricated areas of the engine.

Because we can’t see inside an operational BMW 5 Series engine, all we can do is look at what comes out of the engine.

When the condition is bad a mechanic may notice poor quality, sludgy oil and suggest an engine flush.

In most cases mechanics will recommend to carry out an engine flush, as a regular BMW 5 Series maintenance task.

When excessive sludge builds up in a BMW 5 Series engine the oil can’t lubricate all the parts properly.

Oil needs to travel through the engine freely to disperse heat and provide a smooth surface for moving parts. If this doesn’t happen then engine failure is imminent.

A BMW 5 Series engine flush can be performed by automotive servicing providers and mobile mechanics.

You can’t go wrong if you make sure it’s a qualified mechanic. AutoGuru is a great place to find local, quality mechanics to compare and book a BMW 5 Series engine flush.
