im going for a basic minor service tomorrow, i havent tried using oil flush fluid to thoroughly clean flush the oil, i heard a few people using the oil flush and said its good coz it takes off oil build ups, should i use oil flush or not necessary, what good and bad effects will this result too,

Do not use oil flush.
It can flush carbon and sludge deposits into the clearances of your engine...

Just change your oil filter and oil as per every 5/10,000kms.

if you are changing your oil every on a honda 5k-10k then it's not really necessary.
on vehicles like some beemers where the oil change schedule is only every 25k then it's something that u would look at to get the sludge buildup off

btw keep your serice queries to ONE thread, we dont need a million threads asking what could be in the one thread
