    just to let you know it can be used in Reverse to pump in differential oil or maybe even gearbox oil
    Ricky302's avatar
    Whether you're pumping something in or out just use it normally, no need to reverse anything.
  2. pob1976's avatar
    Just to let you that if you jack up the rear of the car, it can pump quite a bit more out

    Silly question perhaps but where do you put the hose to drain the oil out? I have BMW 1 series and the oil filter and oil top up is on the top of the engine. However, the oil drain plug is underneath and a pain to get to as you have to jack the car up. Can anyone help?

    I'm guessing this has to get quite far into the engine to suck all the oil out and the oil top up has engine parts in it blocking how far the tube can go in... does the hose go into the oil dipstick holder?
    caparn1's avatar
    You just put the tube down the dipstick hole, remove the dipstick first, until it hits the bottom of the engine. The tube is quite narrow, about the same as a drinking straw or maybe even thinner. For getting the filter off I needed to buy an oil filter wrench for about £5 autodoc.co.uk/neo…495

    Take the car for a short drive before you drain it as the heat will thin the oil and it will be much faster to extract.

    What do you guys put the used oil in and where to get rid does it have to go to the tip
    Percy247's avatar
    I use it as creosote on sheds, fences, chicken houses etc.

    My oil filter is on top, mercedes GLC.

    My car takes 6.5l engine oil, and my manual vacuum pump takes out pretty much all 6.5l of it via the dip stick

    Jacking the car up and draining via the sump doesn't necessarily mean all the engine oil will come out, especially if the car isn't absolutely level or angled towards the sump. You will only achieve this level or angle with a lift ramp that garages use.

    So I don't see a pump via the dipstick any inferior than draining via the sump, unless you have a mechanical lift ramp

    I bought this last year but haven't used it yet as I have a manual vacuum pump from before that I'm still using.

    Will these drain the batteries much?

    I pumped 200L of diesel from drum over a period of 2 months with an old motorbike battery without charging it in-between so no it isn't hard on a battery.
  7. Wolf24h's avatar
    Great stuff, especially if you own a german car. They're designed to extract the oil this way and you can even change the filter from the top as well
    Gj9382's avatar
    Unless it's a diesel vw where the oil filter is right underneath with some pipes in the way.

    Petrol veedubs though, 10min job.

    Great price. Bought a cheapo brand one off Amazon for around £12. Used it 3 times & no issues. Old oil cannister or washer fluid canister for the oil down the tip. 7.5l change on mine, takes around 5-10 minutes when car warmed up. Oil & filter change can be done in less than half an hour for around £50 with Castrol & Bosch filter. (edited)

    It does the job, but can be a right pain getting the tube in right.
    Obviously it needs to be at the bottom of the sump to suck it out, but it can be a faff getting it oriented correctly.and then you're never sure how much you've taken out.

    It's fine for intermediate changes, but a proper one should be done next time. (edited)
    Gj9382's avatar
    Pretty simple to know how much you take out by knowing the capacity and measuring how much you take out.
  10. IDontWantToSpendMore's avatar
    Useless people buy useless things... Most filters are under the car. So you need to Jack it up. Plus this won't take everything out the sump .
    Gj9382's avatar
    Many are on top.

    And if you get the tube to the bottom of the sump it'll suck it all out. Basic physics.

    Most main dealers pump out oil on a service where the filter is on top.

    5.7l in my Golf and that's pretty much how much I sucked out. I put back in 5.7 and it was right on the full line.

    Useless people make baseless comments.

    Great piece of kit. Used several times. Just be wary how long you use it. Has drained my battery on one occasion so had to get my car jump started from neighbour. (edited)
    Gj9382's avatar
    Just run the engine whilst using and you'll be fine
  12. avg2uk's avatar
    Pumps a lot quicker if oil is hot
    caparn1's avatar
    Yes, you should take the car for a short drive before you try to drain the oil.
  13. bb11's avatar
    Had mine for years, great for oil changes without having to get under the car. Might get another one as a back up at this price. Heat!
    Gj9382's avatar
    Same here.
  14. Funkyboy's avatar
    These are brilliant
  15. BattleBeast1's avatar
    I actually did my own with one the other day, it does the job ok. I do prefer draining at the sump plug to get everything out but I do my oil every 4000-5000 miles so it's never that bad. I use this every other oil change. I ran it off an old car battery that i'm sure must have been almost flat and the pump just kept on going so it mustn't be too hard on the battery.
    I would like to get some better hose for the dipstick side , the supplied stuff tends to curl up so not sure if it's getting to the bottom of the sump pan....might try some rubber or silicone hose that doesn't curl up. (edited)

    ehh won;t work for audi A5 no place to take the oil out
  17. Salad_Fingers's avatar
    I bought one of these years ago, unfortunately it stopped working after two uses.

    I'm still going to buy another one though
    OKov's avatar
    Return it simple as that
  18. Mᴀʀᴛʏɴ's avatar
    is this good enough to use to change the oil? or still need to get under the car remove the sump plug etc? (2014 A4)
    ashyt16turbo's avatar
    You seem to have missed the point of the whole thread.
  19. ash132's avatar
    Can this be used to drain fuel from a car, got a car up for sale with over 3/4 tank full
    snagzie's avatar
    tight bottom
  20. bas613357's avatar
    I had this for 6 years I never used it for my car just friends and neighbours lol
  21. YouCannotWin2003's avatar
    Trouble with this all the crud, any particulates, shavings, all sit right at the bottom. Unlikely this will get them out and they’re the most important part. Use the sump plug - I’ve had many German cars and all (up to 2021) have sump plugs.
    jammy86's avatar
    Not really. The crud is in the filter, that's what it's for.

    For all those saying "it doesn't get it all out" if you're changing 5l of dirty oil for 4.9l of clean oil, the 0.1l dirty is pretty insignificant.

    This is also how nearly all new vehicles since about 2014 have been serviced as main dealerships.

    Apologies fat thumb, voted cold by accident. Great deal going to buy one.
  23. EndemicAlarm's avatar
    Well you can get equivalents off AliExpress for a little more than this delivered... but the Lidl version looks much better built, I must say. £10 to not have to jack a car, try and stop me.

    I prefer not to get Aldi/Lidl stuff because if it breaks sure you'll get a refund but the chance of them being able to give you a new one is about zero, then you're stuffed. At least if this breaks you can just put oil back in.

    Didn't even know something like this existed wow nice 🏻
  25. jamgin's avatar
    Can this be used for pumping water?
    cheeky_chops's avatar
    Came to ask same qu. At 1.5l per min it doesn't seem fast...
  26. donny's avatar
    Had great success with this on a VW Passat 2003 model with 1.9 tdi engine. Seemed to pull all the oil out each and every service. Not so great success using on a VW Sharan 2003 model with 1.9 tdi engine. Did not seem to pull so much out. Both vehicles had different sumps so that may have been a contributory factor. Sharan was a hell bent design to change the oil with a great big heavy fibre glass under tray and the sump plug at the very back of the engines sump. Passat sump was easy, sump plug to the side so just take one wheel off to access ( but then the dreaded stripped thread occurred as its a steel nut going into a fine light aluminium thread and after rethreading it decided to switch to this pump ) (edited)

    Using for Honda accord 2.2 i-ctdi and D5 Volvo
  28. shininghero's avatar
    Have used this for my previous cars and it works great as long as you can get the tube right to the bottom the sump. Unfortunately doesn’t work on my 5 series as it doesn’t have a dip stick. Still a bargain bit of kit and makes the oil change less messy
  29. MrRee's avatar
    I calculated how long it would take to empty a typical sump - hours!!
    Gj9382's avatar
    I'd revisit your calculations.
  30. OKov's avatar
    I do my audi with access from the top dipstick tube. Make sure you heat the car first. As cold oil is too viscous.

    5 litres of oil in about 2-3 minutes.
    Goes straight into empty screenwash container.
  31. gtd65's avatar
    I bought one around 3 years ago.

    In my opinion, it's far less hassle just getting under the car and undoing the sump bolt, that way I know it's fully drained.

    It's a good price and a great idea but traditional works better for me.
    Bubba_Smith's avatar
    Easier said done if your fit. If your older and creaking abit not quite simple.

    Is this food safe ?
    ashyt16turbo's avatar
    As long as you don't eat your sandwiches while changing the oil, should be fine.
