Has anyone used an oil extractor for oil changes? Is this even possible on a gen 2? Trying to figure out how I want to lift this thing for oil changes but thought this isn't a problem if i could just **** it out thru the dipstick hole.

You can rig up your vacuum extractor to use 1/4" tubing and run it down the dipstick tube all the way to the bottom. That setup will take some time to empty the pan though - and you will still have some oil in the sump.

This is SOP on a lot of newer vehicles. But I still prefer pulling drain plug.

Helps if the oil is warmer but I just do it cold on a couple vehicles for friends
