Default engine flushing question

I took my EP3 in to get oil changed and they told me that I should flush out my engine oils, because it's dirty. I only have 40,000 miles on my car, you think they're just trying to make money or should I do it?

i have a BEST MOTORING video and Tatsuru Ichishima (spoon pres.) says engine flushing messes up the bearing clearances. DON"T DO IT.
