It's really not that difficult.

Post by: truckinwagen on November 15, 2009, 10:50:12 pm: many of the oil pans on the equipment I work on have ball valves with a nipple for a hose.

but those have their oil changed once a month(ore more) and use upwards of fifteen gallons of oil each.

I have thought about putting a valve for oil changes on my motor, but it would probably just get knocked off.

For VW's the primary advantage would be not having hot oil run over your hands as you remove the bolt.

Don't know right now. Will measure before I order.

Post by: macka on November 17, 2009, 09:45:05 am: 2 sizes listed. 14x1.5mm and an adaptor if you don't need one. I'm getting one, I ordered a skid plate, because I do drive on a lot of bushroads, I figure if I don't have to drop the plate to do an oil change. Time saved is money saved.

I didn't mean to offend you either, I just think it's a funny idea for what, 4-5 litres of oil?
Some people go overboard on their VW's and there is nothing wrong with that if you're having fun.
