    Engine flush 61,000 miles result

    They all need to be flushed. Haters going to hate. Nearly every pro mechanic in NZ and Australia engine flush every service. Where are all the negative stories? 1000s of cars everyday. How do you clean turbo lines and filters? Ive never heard a bad story in real life only on the internet.

    Lubegard Red opinions?

Probably running at least 30f cooler, I run a temp guage on it, dont see it get above 170f with normal driving. Will take it to the track this year and see how hot it gets. Sorry I dont...

    GM 2.0 Turbo LTG oil consumption (2015 Malibu 2.0 LTZ)

    Flush it, twice, Liqui Moly, haters are gonna hate. Need it to clean all turbo lines and filter, plus the rings. Then run a high end oil in spec. If it doesnt have a system to cool turbo after shut down. Run it (idle) for at least 2 minutes before shut down.
