Have any of you tried this one? http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/...rrivals&page=1

I'm going to get one once Griot's sends some good coupon codes.

 

waiting for the 85% off coupon?

8 gallons!!

shoot, you could change the oil 3 times before ya dump it

 

I have nothing against Griot's, but really, $70 for an oil drain pan??? I hope those are some good coupons

Personally, I use a 15 quart Blitz container that fits under my Boxster w/o need to be raised (haven't done an oil change of on the C4S yet) that cost me about $12.

 

Awesome, you can wheel it under a low profile car. How the hell are you going to get under there to remove the oil drain plug?

 

jack it up

 

I can do the Boxster from the driver side after first loosening the drain plug just a bit. I then slide the pan under and finish removing the drain plug and just let it fall onto the top of the pan. It is a bit of a reach but it does eliminate the need to jack up the car, which saves the 10-15 minutes to get out the jack stands and place them.

 

Yeah it's alot for an oil catch can. I had the Blitz and the cap that screws on where you would dump it cracked slightly and leaked. Griot's usually sells quality stuff, so I don't mind paying the extra $. Plus they warranty most things for life.

The coupons are generally 15% off a certain amount. But they don't send them out during the summer months it seems.

 

Worthless. Go recycle a 5-gallon paint container (plastic). You can even buy one from Home Depot for a couple of bucks and it will be orange. Cut it down to handle about 12 quarts of oil. Unless, of course, you're looking to just spend money.

 

to small.... and expensive.

 

I like the idea, but my garage is slightly sloped so the wheels are a deal killer...unless the sell little tiny wheel chocks The price however...

 

Could make a good RMS leak catch can.

 

That would prolly sell,: if you get that guy from sham wow to pitch it!
