Hi,
I was just about to change oil in my vmax and i tought that I'd buy one of those magnetic drain plugs. The problem is that the old drain plug is longer than the new magnetic one that the dealers gave me. The magnetic drain plug still fits though, should this matter at all?
I read somewhere that the short drain plugs are for transmission and the long ones are for oil.... Is this through and does it matter?
Also when i unscrewed the old drain plug i managed to destroy some of the threads in the oil drainage, do I need to go to an autoshop to get this checked?
Thank you!
PS! I did post another thread with same text, but wrong thread title, how do i remove that thread? thanks!
