I'm coming up on my first 1,000 miles and will be doing my first engine oil and filter change soon.
A few questions for those who have already gone through the break-in service:
Does the factory engine oil drain plug come with a magnet, or is it just a standard plug? Do ford dealer can install one?
Any recommendations?
Besides the engine oil, has anyone done a drain-and-fill on the Tremec TR-3160 6-speed transmission? I noticed Tremec recommends a fluid change after the first 500 miles.
Did you follow that recommendation, or did you wait until later?

Has anyone also changed the differential fluid during the break-in period? Did you notice anything unusual (metal on the magnet, fluid condition, etc.)?
I'm just curious what everyone is doing for their initial break-in service and whether it's worth going beyond the engine oil change.
