Default oil change

going to change the oil in my s70 turbo for the first time, I have located the drain plug and filter, but it sits so low I am going to have to jack it up. how do the rest of you do it, can I just jack up to front a little to gain access and still have the oil drain out?

I have my trusty Volvo mechanic change it. I change it twice a year and there is usually something else going on with the car that I can't/don't want to mess with, so it works out OK.

Treat yourself to some ramps .... You know the ones you buy from auto shops, it a piece of cake! And so important to the care of your engine
