As i'm old school i used to always remove rocker cover when i changed the oil
to give it a good clean. As my car has always been garage serviced by previous
owners & its 14 years old i bet the cover has never been off. Is it
a difficult/pain in the ass job to do as its looking a bit grotty looking through
the oil filler cap hole.
Never been a fan of engine flushing, not sure why but there you go.

Re: Rocker cover cleaning.
Best get a new gasket ready if its never been off before, just did a price check between Europarts and Carparts4less on the web and Carparts4less are cheaper for the same part, Euro at £28.99 and 4less at £24.60. Always find 4less are cheaper even though they are the same firm behind the trading names.

Re: Rocker cover cleaning.
depending on your engine type it will be very similar if not identical to the process discussed on page 7 here:
