I guessed it depends on the car. I first start using it on my e53 X5 and did an experiment. I had vacuum all the oil out using the Mityvac and then went under to drain it from the plug. To my surprise, nothing came out of the plug. I had to jack the car from the opposite side of the plug to get a dribble out of the plug. That confirmed it for me that it was good enough to use the suction method and I have been using it since.
