Start by finding a product available in Germany then consult the manufacturer's instructions. If you decide to buy Comma Flush Out from the UK then yes, it is supplied in a 5 litre container. This will be just right for two treatments. The price, excluding international carriage, will be between £15 and £20.

And also, what do they mean with "leave the engine fast idle for.about 10 minutes"? What exactly is a fast idle ha ha
Fast idle is the speed at which your engine runs when started from cold. It can vary depending upon how low the ambient temperature is. I run my engine at about 1,100 rpm when using flushing oil.
