I have been doing a bit of pondering regarding my top end engine rattle that follows a hard run on the track.
Initially I thought a change of oil (back to 5w40) and a genuine filter would do the trick but after having a look I appear to have a few turbo turds kicking about in there, so, I am considering a flush of some description...
Auto rx has got a few good reviews...in america.
Wynns engine cleaner also.
Any body had any success using and products?
Oh and i'm fully aware of the horror stories about using these products as well.

Strange, that auto-rx is getting rave reviews by vag turbo owners as they suffer from sludging pretty bad..... hopefully my audi will be gone before any such issue!

Nope
I would never put any flushing agent in my engine.
