RXPX Milky Oil Flushing

[Dahern03]

Hey. I recently changed my leaking Intercooler on my 2018 rxpx and just found my oil to be milky. I’m planning on flushing the oil a couple of times to hopefully get all of the watery oil out. Any suggestions on what oil to use for the intermediate oil flushes. Not trying to throw away $80 worth of brand new XPS oil 4-5 times but I’m also not sure if the type of intermediate oil matters if I’m going to fill it with XPS when I’m done. Can I just use the cheapest 5w40 oil I can find?

I would not use the cheapest oil because if your engine is similar to my 2005 215, there are pockets inside the engine where the oil may not drain out of. There were 3 on top of the head and another in the bottom of the PTO housing.

It may be worth taking the valve cover off and using a suction hose to drain the pockets between changes.

I have read about a process where they intentionally over heat the engine to boil off the water but this sounds risky.
