Accidentally overfilled
So, I overfilled the 06 V8V a tad and need to drain maybe 0,5 liter. What's the easiest way to fix that..? Drain sump, suction from reservoir, anyone?

Well, I ended up buying a cheapo oil suctionpump and went for the reservoir. And it worked like a charm

FYI - overfilled like you, i tried the suction pump on my 2013 V12 and it was blocked at the end of the dip stick tube, ended up using the drain plug.
