I'm finding all kinds of things that are harder too work on going from four to five cylinders. No oil cooler lines at all on the 240 (euro), doing a clutch slave with that extra cylinder back there is a real bear, not to mention the starter or pulling the IP I figure its just the price I must pay for all those extra horses

you should technically never need to touch the drain plug, unless you want to change the bolt's gasket. MB's method of draining the oil is from the top. it's in the manual...
