Nissan 370Z Forum  

Changed my oil today, Just want to share my thoughts

Just one note on the FilterMag, I heard people actually lost while driving. And the last think you would want is to have any shavings it has gathered to all

i really doubt it. i tried to pull the magnet off the filter but couldn't, i had to slide it off.

i think when people take their Z to the dealership for service, and one of those service dudes stole their filtermag more like it.

HAHAHA so true. Those people are thieves, GPS, Cell phone, whatever valuables you leave in the car while they're servicing they'll take it. And you can't do nothing about it.
