Interesting. I've never used something like this. For myself, I'd probably be paranoid the valve would fail or get inadvertently switched. I'm sure it's unlikely, but the drain plug is pretty important, lol.

I change my oil by pulling it out of the dipstick tube using this:

Yeah, I get that. I wish manufacturers would at least provide a sealed port on the topside to be able to extract the oil. A simple pipe with a threaded plug would be nice!

Good luck man!

I'm not sure if you can extract from the oil filter housing? I've never tried it.

LOL. The W213 AMG forum is pretty much dominated by E63's, so I find myself in a bit of a no-mans land.

I think I may just hang here and pretend I still have a W205, lol.
