Hi all
Have been advised to change the oil in our 24v but have a few questions.
What oil should i use?
I have read about changing filter after a flush?
What on earth is a flush? 
Thanks Everyone

Before draining the old oil put some flushing additive in and run the engine for a while then drain and put the proper oil and new filter in.
here is an additive which can be added to the old oil before it's drained.
