I would say that's a good plan Jase :thumbsup:

I don't like the idea of adding products to oil. At least after flushing and a couple of changes you should be rid of any muck.

Another reason to do an annual or 10k oil change using fully synthetic.

AVS = Poo

BUB :no:
 
In short, sludge is uncurable but it can be stopped if it is detected early. Auto-RX is your best bet like Elberoth said.

Hope it works for you because sludge can cause oil pump failure which is not good for your car or wallet.
 
i need to change the computer to fixed servicing as my cars been on the dreaded avs servicing since new, its had 5 services in 80k which isnt to bad i suppose
