When you book a regular oil change, gravity draining alone leaves behind sticky sludge, varnish and microscopic debris trapped inside oil galleries and piston rings. With our specialist EDT engine cleaning in Cranbrook, we use the automated Engine Decontamination Machine to flush out that build-up safely without dismantling a single engine component.

What Happens Step-by-Step During an Engine Decontamination?

  1. Drain Old Oil We drain the old, degraded engine oil from your sump.
  2. 15-Minute Mineral Oil Flush We connect the EDT machine, which circulates warm, non-toxic, biodegradable mineral oil through every oil way. A transparent viewing chamber catches the removed sludge and particles so you can see what came out.
  3. New Filter & Fresh Oil Once decontamination is complete, we fit a new oil filter and refill with clean engine oil so it can lubricate without immediately being contaminated by old sludge.

How Do You Book a 15-Minute EDT Engine Decontamination?

Common Questions

What Do Customers Ask About EDT Engine Cleaning?

What is the Engine Decontamination Machine?

The Engine Decontamination Machine, developed by EDT Automotive, is an automated workshop system that flushes vehicle oil ways using a heated, bespoke biodegradable mineral oil before a fresh oil and filter change.

How does EDT engine cleaning work?

After draining the old engine oil, the machine connects to the oil filter housing and oil sump, pulsing warm mineral oil through the engine channels for about 15 minutes to dissolve and trap sludge, varnish, and debris in a clear filter chamber without dismantling the engine.

What are the proven benefits of EDT engine cleaning?

By removing internal sludge so fresh oil can lubricate properly, EDT Automotive states that vehicles treated with the machine see an average 69% reduction in CO emissions and a 61% reduction in smoke emissions, alongside smoother running and improved fuel economy.

How long does the engine decontamination process take?

The automated EDT engine cleaning cycle takes approximately 15 minutes, followed immediately by fitting a brand-new oil filter and filling your engine with fresh manufacturer-spec oil.

Can the Engine Decontamination Machine be used on all types of engines?

Yes. EDT engine cleaning is safe and suitable for petrol, diesel, and hybrid engines across all makes and models of cars and light commercial vans.
