Being the parsimonious type I have always serviced my own cars.
My current house doesn't have a garage and the drive isn't best for getting under a car, being narrow and on a steep slope so it's a ballache to drop the oil from my cars. My current car has a known issue that is managed with regular oil changes.
I have heard about these oil extraction pumps that suck the old oil out of the dipstick hole, but never used one.
I'm favouring the powered type as they seem smaller and easier to store. Has anyone any expirence of using them or can recommend a model?
I have two cars and generally change the oil twice a year on one and annually on the other.3
