No need if engine oil is changed frequently before it solidify to become sludge. How often will dependent on usage. I used to be able to check because the oil filler cap was not blocked. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apple-Tree 6th Gear August 19, 2018 Share August 19, 2018 (edited) Yalor, but hor, I am not sure about my Diesel Engine lor. My Carens U2 1.7L DPF EO level actually rises over time. Up to about 1cm above full mark when reach 10kkm cycle. Some say engine failure liao. But I checked internet, DPF Diesel Engine is like that one. As during DPF clean cycle, diesel is spray until DPF wet, then go lean to raise temp and burn the DPF at about 600~800C vapourizing the soot lor. So diesel end up in EO lor. Need to check if C&C on the next servicing as since day 1 the engine is LIKE THAT lor. Now 20kkm done, 10mths. old. No need if engine oil is changed frequently before it solidify to become sludge.

Better change engine oil more often cause of the dilution by diesel. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After much analysis, it is the EO used CMI to the point that it begin to sludge. After that, I tried many EO (include Carlube) and in the end, use a more synthetic EO. Finally, I "blend" my own EO by mixing different EO together. I attribute it to my usage pattern and style of driving. Like Mkl22 mentioned, change engine oil more often and use a better quality one. Could also be your usage pattern.. Edited August 19, 2018 by Kklee 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apple-Tree 6th Gear August 20, 2018 Share August 20, 2018 Thanks for your advice. Ya, I will probably be more regimental on the EO change schedule. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
