Flushing your engine oil is generally not recommended for most vehicles, as it can dislodge sludge and debris that may clog oil passages and lead to engine damage. Instead, regular oil changes using the manufacturer-recommended oil type are sufficient to maintain engine health. If your engine shows signs of severe buildup, a professional mechanic may suggest a cleaning process that is safer than a full flush. Always consult your vehicle's manual or a trusted mechanic before making such decisions.
