The only thing that has ever had magnetic drain plugs on it when I bought it was my Yamaha products. Both my ATV and my FZ1 had a magnetic drainplug.

The previous owner of my Jetta had one too. I'll likely get one for this truck the next go round. I don't see any way that it could HURT anything. Likely just helps keep more crap out of the engine. That's a good thing no matter how you look at it.

I've got one on mine too. The original one was about stripped when I changed the oil the first time and it was the only one they had at the parts store with the right thread so I figured, why not

Great idea! Military aircraft have them, and for good reason! Just ordered one with the washer. Like you said, didn't have the 10-11' but the 09 engine is almost exactly the same. AP-02

I use the FilterMag on the oil filter, holds everything to the inside wall of the filter.
