Liquimoly created, engine flush and injector treatments?
Hey y’all, tried reading the forums on my question but didn’t find too much. My e63 gets delivered here in the few days and I am just wanting to do some preventative maintenance. The MB dealer I got the car from just changed the oils and spark plugs but usually I like to instantly do
Lm- 2 cans proline engine flush
LM- 2 cans ceratec
LM 5w-40 oil
is this a pretty common thing to do on these m157’s? On my m156 and m113k I’ve religiously done this and have had good success. Got the car boroscoped and the cylinder walls looked clean. I typically do my oil every 2500-3k miles using only LM 5w-40 and the ceratec/flush treatment once a year as the car doesn’t usually go more than 7500 miles.
also what do you guys think about doing a LM injector flush?
any other recommendations for instant maintenance is highly appreciated as well as I live in SoCal and it is about to
get HOT so I want this car running as great as possible!
thank you

Regarding the flushes and oil, none of that would hurt your car by any means. However, none if that would guarantee increased longevity either with any consistency. All of that said, I still vote do it as it's relatively good preventative maintenance on our cars. Unfortunately, if the previous owner(s) weren't as on it with maintenance, it's Unfortunately a crapshoot of impactful it will be in the long run.

i just did all those. 2 engine flush cans with one oil change and than dumped that and than did the liqui molly with 2 ceratec oil cans. i can honestly feel th engine is much smoother. Maybe its a mental thing but it is what it is.

Start with a oil analysis and go from there to what oil additive you may or may not need.

Liquimoly treatments
How many intervals of mos2 would you guys prefer before putting another round of Ceratec? Maybe 2 oil changes with mos2 then the 3rd oil change do another Ceratec bottle…then repeat process?
