It's messy, isn't it? I use this http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_1...t&keyword=pump to pump out about 3 + quarts through the dipstick tube into a gallon jug. I measure what came out and replace it with fresh in the same amount. No mess. Works on my Caddy and my daughter's Mitsu. Wife's Camry has a drain plug.
