Quick drain oil valve
I'm thinking of putting in one of these valves (http://qwikvalve.com/), it seems it would make oil changes easy. Has anyone tried this? Is there any problemw/ ground clearance, leaking or anything else. Will it cause my engine to blow up?
Any comments appreciated.

Where the drain plug is located is not protected enough for that. drag you oil pan over a speed bump and out comes all your oil.
This car is VERY easy to change the oil on anyhow, i wouldn't bother. Used a similar system on another car that was very hard to reach the drain plug, it was useful there, but doesn't apply to the 996

Not personally buying one, but I can definitely see this being the type of thing that would have considerable sales and a large profit margin at the price point they are asking!

I had one of these, made by Fumoto IIRC, on both of my 95 Audi S6s, which have the drain plug on the side of oil pan. They worked great for years. However, I cannot see it working on the 996, where it would hang out the bottom.
