Oil Shavings On Magnetic Drain Plug... Read On
Woke up earlier this morning to change the oil on the //S ahead of schedule, everything was going as planned, until I removed the magnetic drain plug. I almost appeared to have a ball bearing attached to it.
Do you think, being the car is still on the original set of turbos, it is "TIME" or this is a motor wear issue from the colder weather?

put a stock drain plug in there...
and next oil change, send your oil to blackstone-labs.com for analysis.
that will tell you anything you need to know.
after you send the sample in, you can put the magnetic plug back in.
