{"product_id":"magnetic-oil-drain-plug-13","title":"Magnetic Oil Drain Plug","description":"The Racingline Magnetic Sump Plug (VWR180000) is a preventative maintenance upgrade engineered to safeguard your engine's internal components. It functions by replacing your vehicle's standard oil drain plug with a unit featuring a powerful neodymium-style magnet. This magnet actively attracts and captures small ferrous (iron-based) metal particles that are inevitably generated through normal engine operation and wear.\n\nThese microscopic metal shavings, if left to circulate, can accelerate wear on critical engine parts such as bearings, camshafts, and cylinder walls. By installing the Racingline Magnetic Sump Plug, these particles are effectively removed from the oil flow and safely contained at the bottom of the oil sump. During your next scheduled oil change, the accumulated debris is simply drained away with the old oil. This simple upgrade can also serve as a diagnostic tool, as excessive metal buildup at oil change intervals may indicate underlying internal engine wear.\n\nConstructed from high-strength billet aluminum, the Racingline Magnetic Sump Plug offers durability and a clean, precise finish. It is designed as a direct replacement for the factory drain plug and is best installed during a routine oil service. The installation process involves draining the old oil, removing the stock plug, and fitting the magnetic plug with a fresh sealing washer, torqued to the vehicle manufacturer's specifications.\n\nImportant Fitment Notice: This sump plug is exclusively compatible with vehicles equipped with metal, steel, or alloy oil sumps. It must NOT be fitted to vehicles that have a plastic sump, as the thread design and sealing requirements differ significantly. The Racingline Magnetic Sump Plug is suitable for a wide range of popular VW Group vehicles, including many VW, Audi, SEAT, Skoda, and Cupra models, provided they have a metal sump. Always consult the vehicle lookup tool or fitment tab for specific compatibility confirmation.","brand":"Racingline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52872832549176,"sku":"VWR180000","price":17.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/magnetic-oil-drain-plug-13","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
