Drain plug - S55
Anyone have 1st hand experience with getting a replacement drain plug? I was looking for a good magnetic one and ran across the ones in the link below but I find some conflicting info on the size. I think it is M12x1.5x16 but would prefer not to guess.
https://drainplugmagnets.com/cars/bmw/ This company claims to have magnets that are rated to 300 degrees. |

I will forever stick to OEM drain plugs after a bad experience with installing an aftermarket magnetic one in my e46 M3 - the plug ruined the threads in my oil pan and required a heli-coil/insert to fix. Unfortunately it still drips a few drops of oil whenever it sits, post-helicoil... will eventually replace the oil pan when doing rod bearings.
