An engine flush is chemistry poured through the engine. It is not the oil change. Most interval services in India do not need it. Relatim quotes oil and the complaint. Flush only if the mechanic has looked and asked for it.
When a flush is unused
A healthy engine on time with oil does not need a flush to pad a “comprehensive” package. That is the same trap as unused cabin filters. Unused service items, membership and AMC, doorstep when the job fits.
When a mechanic might actually ask
Skipped oil for years, sludge after they have looked, a specific recommendation — not a default line. Relatim will put it on the quote only then. You approve. Relatim does not charge you to check. You pay the mechanic. Relatim is not an authorised OEM centre.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an engine flush at every service?
Usually no. A healthy engine on time with oil does not need a flush. Relatim quotes oil and the actual complaint.
When is a flush useful?
Rarely: sludge after skipped oil, or a specific recommendation after the mechanic has looked. Not as a default extra on every periodic.
Is it the same as an oil change?
No. Oil and filter are the interval job. A flush is extra chemistry. Relatim will not hide it inside “periodic.”
What does Relatim charge?
Nothing to check. You pay the mechanic the lines you approved.
