Moon,
I haven't done an oil change on an E70, but on our E53, that large volume of
oil comes out like a gusher, when the drain plug is pulled...if you are doing it
in the garage/driveway, I would rec'd some newspaper/flat cardboard as a
"mat" under that area, and make sure the catch pan has enough volume and
a substantial lip on it; I have come to use a cardboard "funnel/trough" to direct
that stream of hot oil toward the catch pan.
All of the above may be moot, if you are using an extractor.
As JCL noted, use Search Tab for DIY oil changes: the info is applicable
regardless of model year, engine, etc.
