Sounds like a good idea, but I would prefer to have it done in one day - got plenty to get on with around the car.

Apparently there could be between 1-2litres of old oil left in the pipeline and various components after draining, so my idea is to fill it up with fresh oil to flush it all out before draining it again and refilling with fresh oil.

Makes sense ??
