These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Car is 996 year 1999 Hi I am going to attempt to do a full engine flush and oil change / filter next week in order to get some crap out of my engine. Can anyone give me hints/ advice to totally drain the engine/pipes and cooler (not sure how drain the front end and cooler)? Regards GRA

An Oil change, assuming you empty both sumps will do it as modern oils are supposed to clean up the insides, i.e. oil gets dirty so you know it's doing it's job not sure about a complete flush, but an oil change on a 996 is quite easy if you have the right tools and maybe shorter interval changes could be better to achieve a this ?
