Quick Lube Shop Scams / Engine Flushes.

If you're thinking of going to a quick lube shop soon, here's something to consider.

During service, techs may show you your engine oil cap and recommend an engine oil flush.

If you hear this, it's 100% a scam.

No tech or mechanic should ever recommend an engine oil flush to get rid of creamy substances under your engine oil cap. They are only going to rip you off thinking you don't know any better.

The story might change from shop to shop, but they'll try to sell you something by showing you your cap. This should make you pay close attention to what they are saying.

So now you know what to do next time you run into this issue.

You can check your coolant temperature in front of them to verify what they are saying is true.

And pass on the engine flush 100% of the time, as that won't fix this issue or a blown head gasket.

Just say you'll have your regular oil change and carry on with your day.
