Sludge is usually caused by the presence of water in the oil, and can accumulate with use. Ways to minimise sludge production and accumulation includes performing frequent oil changes, performing mechanized engine flushing, or de-sludging, using modern synthetic oils and always following the manufacturer's engine maintenance routine, particularly if the vehicle is oftern used for short urban runs.
