I've used this method on every car I've owned, especially BMW because the filters on the E36 are on top as well so you don't need to go under the car. I wrote up a DIY on it a while back http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32427

Well after doing a lot of reading, I've decided to forget the ramps and go with removing the oil from the top with the Hydro-Turf Oil Extractor OIL01:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HYDRO-TURF-O...-/321140956465 I actually got it on Amazon. Will post a review after I am done |

I run onto 2x10's and flip my valve. Works fine for me. I would absolutely hate to do it with a wrench though.

Just make sure to really clean your bong before you use it again.
