Hey Fellas,
Last week I changed my oil and I noticed some very small metal particles on the magnet of my oil drain plug. The were small...even smaller than a high security cross cut paper shredder would make with paper. I usually see a very small amount of metal to none at all with every oil change, but this was more than usual.
Recently I had my water pump replace under warrenty cuz it was leaking a small amount of oil. I'm thinking that the additional metal particles might be from the new water pump wearing in. Can anyone ease my mind. I'm going to change the oil in about 1000 miles and see what it looks like then, but just wanted to see what you guys think.
Thanks in advance!
