Who uses this method for changes?
I have for each of my '11 JSW's changes and I love it. I could change my oil in a suit if I wanted too. No crawling on the ground or taking the 49 screws out that hold the belly pan in place to get at the drain plug. The 50 bucks or whatever it was I paid IDparts for that thing was well worth it, BUT.....
Should I do it the old fashioned way every 4 or 5 changes?
Does it as much oil out?
I think next time I will do it the traditional way, just to have a look at the drain plug to see if it's picked up any bits of anything floating around inside. Also, it's not a bad idea to have a look underneath every now and then to maybe spot something like a ripped CV boot or whatever.
Also, I was thinking of picking up a panzer plate or whatever it is they call the aftermarket metal pans.
