About 30 years ago some idiot I worked with was starting his idiot oil change business by idiotically taking the oil out of the top like an idiot, the idiot broke my oil pressure sensor because this is idiotic and I was an idiot to let him do it. The idiot wouldn't replace it and so my boss fired the idiot by claiming some other idiotic reason.
I'd say no like everyone else but do what you want 🥴

I’m 75 years old and changed two jeeps yesterday. Fumoto. Easy to do.

OP: I used to have a Mityvac oil extractor and did my oil changes through the dipstick for 15 years. BMW 323i and it ran great with 220k miles. Until someone t boned me. Caveats: 1. If the tube comes out when transferring to a container it's a big mess. 2. It's not as fast as you think. Half hour to pull all the oil out. It was OK on the BMW because the filter was on the top. Overall worth it for a vehicles that would require jacking up for access.

This looks like a great idea and the F106N looks like you can attach a piece of tubing. Any downsides?

x3 - makes zero sense to try and suck the oil out from the top especially since a Jeep is not a low rider
