2.5 dse oil change

Had to do a service on a 2.5 a few weeks back. The oil was absolutely filthy. I changed the filter and filled it with new oil, ran it up to temperature and it still came out a horrible black. Changed the oil & filter again and told the owner to run it for about 1000 miles and bring it back for another change....haven't heard from him since.
I should have flushed it with flushing oil I suppose.
I have never seen such an 'orrible mess on any of the petrol V8's that I have done.
 
morris do one semisynthetic,flush out oil cooler too,just be careful of the pipes the threads tend to strip,very frustrating,and flush out intercooler too,the advice i had was to flush out the oil cooler every 4 years.
