Tdv8 vacuume assisted oil changes

If a vacuume is used to drain the oil from a tdv8, is it necessary to drain the sump from the rear sump plug? ______________________________

You will always get more oil out by draining than sucking...

but IMHO the amount left will be negligible , if you do oil changes on time then I can't see it making any difference... Pete

The Workshop Manual describes the vacuum method for the 4.4, but shows removal of both sump plugs for 3.6 models. G reg 2.5VM Vogue Portofino red 1991- 1999

The first time I changed the oil on my 3.6 I used the vacuum then took the plugs out.
There was very little oil came out of the plug holes so after that I only ever used the vacuum as I change the oil every 7ishK miles I reckon that any dirty oil left in would be so diluted it wouldn't matter.
80K miles later when I parted with it there were still no mechanical issues so it seemed to work OK for me

Thanks Gents.

Good to hear your experience Cass. Whether to remove the rear sump plug when doing a vacuume extraction was a topic of discussion with an Indy recently. ______________________________
