GoldPlug magnetic M12x1.75 engine oil drain plug for Chevy GMC Ford — stainless steel, includes O-ring

The GoldPlug GP13 M12x1.75 is a stainless-steel magnetic engine oil drain plug designed to collect ferrous particles and replace your OEM plug on many Chevy, GMC and Ford engines.

The GP13 is engineered to work as a drop-in replacement drain plug for specific modern engines, combining corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction with a built-in magnet to capture metallic debris circulating in engine oil. It includes a new O-ring for a secure seal and is compatible with a wide range of Chevy, GMC and Ford models produced in recent model years. Installation is straightforward: remove the original drain plug, install the GP13 with the supplied O-ring, and torque to the vehicle manufacturer's specification.

Which vehicles and engines is the GP13 compatible with?

The GP13 fits many Ford, Chevy and GMC engines but has exclusions you should check before ordering. It suits all Ford cars and SUVs from 2011 onward except those with 2.7L and 3.0L V6 engines, and it fits Chevy/GMC cars, SUVs and pickups from 2020 onward, including 6.6L diesel variants.

• Ford: compatible with most 2011+ car and SUV engines, excluding 2.7L and 3.0L V6.
• Chevy/GMC: compatible with 2020+ car, SUV and pickup engines, including 6.6L diesels.
• Always verify thread size M12x1.75 and OEM plug specs before purchase.
• Contact GoldPlug or use the brand's fitment search if unsure.

How does the magnetic feature help maintain an engine?

The integrated magnet attracts and holds small ferrous particles suspended in engine oil, helping to keep them out of sensitive components. While it does not replace routine oil and filter changes, it provides an added layer of protection by removing metal shavings and wear debris that can circulate between services.

• Catches tiny iron-based particles that oil filters may miss.
• Reduces circulating abrasive debris between oil changes.
• Easy to inspect when removed during oil service to monitor metal accumulation.

What materials and parts come with the GP13, and how do I install it?

The GP13 is made from stainless steel for corrosion resistance and includes one replacement O-ring for a proper seal. Installation is simple and mirrors replacing a standard drain plug: drain oil, remove factory plug, fit the supplied O-ring, thread the GP13 into the sump by hand, then torque to the vehicle maker's recommended value.

• Stainless-steel body resists rust and maintains appearance.
• Supplied with one O-ring; extras available as Part # OR-05.
• Installation requires basic hand tools and adherence to recommended torque specs.

Will the GP13 work with diesel or high-mileage engines?

Yes—when matched to the correct thread and fitment, the GP13 is suitable for many diesel engines, including select 6.6L Chevy/GMC diesel models from 2020 onward. For older or high-mileage engines, it can help collect metallic wear particles, but always confirm fitment and consult a technician if unusual wear is present.

• Compatible with certain 6.6L diesel engines—verify year and model fitment.
• Useful on high-mileage engines to remove accumulated ferrous debris.
• Not a fix for mechanical failure; use alongside routine maintenance.

Who is this for: The GoldPlug GP13 M12x1.75 suits vehicle owners and DIY mechanics who want an easy, durable upgrade to their engine drain plug for additional metal-particle capture. It’s ideal for drivers of compatible Ford, Chevy and GMC cars, SUVs and pickups who perform their own oil changes or want the added protection installed at service. Before ordering, confirm thread size M12x1.75 and model-year fitment with GoldPlug or your vehicle’s specifications.
