Coming up for oil change time and last time it was a pain taking off approx 50 screws to get the undertrays off.
I wondered if i could use a pump and go in through the dipstick thats hidden under the Air filter.
I have started to find a few sites saying the sump is baffled and wont get it all out.
Might have to see if i can find an easier way to get access without taking the whole tray away.
Cannot believe i need to take off right round to bumper and air vents.
Surely must be easier to have a smaller hatch.
Any views or thoughts

Correct about the baffles. On my b7 I used the extractor and later opened the sump plug to see how much was left in there . Approx 2 ltrs of oil .

Now then. Got a pump and managed to suck about 8 and a bit litres. Then got about 1/2 - 3/4 ltr out of the sump plug.
So worth the effort and saved a lot of potential mess.
And saved a load of cash

Have been told by a good friend of mine who has a RS5 b8 that he can get 9ltr out by using a extraction pump and jacking the rear drivers side up of the car as this will allow you to get almost every drop !!!

Will keep that in mind for the next time. Thanks
