    Schwaben Oil extractor on my E61 N54

    I have a Schwaben Top Oil extractor that I use on my dipstick equipped Bimmers, Although I am not sure how to I could use it on my 2008 N54.
    Can anyone shed some light on this?

    Thanks in advance..

    It’s hard to use an oil extractor on a car without a dipstick. You might find a hole that gets you to the oil pan but probably not to the sump of the oil pan.

    I think you can buy a dipstick tube kit. Not sure where or the cost. It is a part you would add when removing the pan to replace the gasket, not an easy job. Plus you have to drill and tig weld.

    I think Fujimoto also makes quick drain pan plugs. I still do it the messy old fashioned way.
