Does what I wanted
I ordered this magnetic oil drain plug for a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 2.0L turbo motor. I was challenging to find the correct plug with internet research, but M14-1.50mm is correct.The head is 14mm wrench, which is a little odd, but not a deal breaker. The magnet seems strong enough, but time will tell. The anodized finish looks good and didn't mar when installed. I wish the face of the head that seals against the pan was a little bigger, but it did cover the opening with the supplied washer.

fit my aluminum trans pan just fine and I can see the blue next to the new black anodized tci pan.
It fit the trans pan just fine and I can see the blue plug next to the next black anodized aluminum trans pan from TCI is great but that big magnet that is to be in the pan collecting debrie .

Good quality and love the Red color
Threads were good, crush washer good, now we shall see if it collects any metals - hopefully not only because there isn't any floating around!I wanted this just to see if there were particles - otherwise I would put in a fumoto drain. Those are the ticket if you change your own oil.Overall this is a good product.

threaded part broke off nut portion and stayed in the oil pan!!!
this drain plug worked fine for 3 oil changes then when i removed it for the next oil change, the hex head twisted off the threaded part and was still in the drain hole, i was lucky it was loose enough to put a smallmagnet in the drain hole and unthreaded it that way. i figured the aluminum snapped off from fatiguefrom tightening it. use a steel plug!!!!. you may not be as lucky as i was and didn't have to drop the oil pan to get the threaded part out.

Good value for the price...so far
Bought for an 04 Elantra with high miles. It is decently light weight in comparison to the OEM oil bolt. The magnet is very strong, and the boot head and threads are aluminum. The only issue I had was getting it to thread, but it is a new bolt, it needs broken in a little and it is a smaller size than original. I'm about 1500 miles into this oil and I have no leaks. Will update in another 1500 with pictures, I can't wait!

Fits 2019 Outback 2.5
I installed this but haven’t drained oil since to check for any particles attached to magnet, so review is incomplete. I like that the head is 19mm which is much more robust than the stock 14mm. It came with one aluminum crush washer so I bought a 10 pack on the side. I should have looked up torque setting ahead of time. Once on the ground I was too lazy and oily to bother so just tightened it good and tight. I had to use a breaker bar to get the original off which seems too tight… not sure if since this is aluminum, torque setting would differ from factory spec.

Perfect fit for honda motor
Delivered on time. Great price. As previous reviews have stated, the supplied crush washer was an odd size. I also ordered the 50pc Honda oem crush washer set with this. I used a factory crush washer instead of the supplied crush washer. It works fine. I didn't change my oil when replacing this plug and the flow stopped way before the plug was threaded in all the way. That was 3 days ago. I have no reason to believe this plug will ever leak if used properly. As to people who think it will strip out easier, well, the plug head is 14mm and 6point. Which means a 14mm six point socket should always be used. Anything else is just asking for the plug to get stripped out. And, it's an oil plug. They don't need that much torque to seal. Especially on aluminum pans such as the one I have.I would buy again and/ or reccomend this to a friend.

Mid oil change, so far so good
I drive about 2000 miles a month. I installed this on my VW TDI (2015 MK VII). I had a bit of concern using this initially, because it's aluminum, and my regular oil pan drain plugs are steel, which I replace each time, with a dealer unit.But I wanted to see if there was any metal components being released from my engine, in the oil. So I'm trying this. I was very careful to not overtighten the drain plug (because it's aluminum), but snugging it sufficiently so as not to come loose. I've checked the oil level every few days, then about every 2 weeks.The oil level is consistent. it's been almost 2 months and over 3500 miles. So far, so good. But until I remove the plug and inspect it, I can only report that it doesn't appear to have any issues thus far.I'll update my review in a few months, with pictures.
