Oil Extractor

I just wanted to confirm that you can use an oil extractor on these cars, as I know that some have issues getting all of the oil out.

I did an oil change yesterday to prep for track today, replacing 0w20 to 5w30.

Oil level was at max line on dipstick to start with. Ran the engine for a couple of mins, then let the oil go back into the pan for a few more minutes.

It sucked out a little over 5 litres and it took maybe 5 minutes or so.

I ballparked how much of the suction hose to insert down the dipstick tube by measuring it against the dipstick. You want to insert until you feel a bit more resistance, and then you push the hose tiny bit more being careful that the sucker doesn't curve upwards as the dipstick enters the pan at an angle.

I'd probably still drain from the bottom every 2-3 oil changes.
