After pulling my plug and striking out trying to find a shorter one at local auto parts places, I just put in the long one from eeuroparts but I used three aluminum washers to bush it out some. I actually don't think the magnetic tip was hitting anything, but I think that the threads on the auto transmission drain pan only go so far, and the longer magnetic drain plug reached the end of those threads pretty early in. Next time I drain, I will get a picture of both plugs side by side. I checked my stock plug and it had 'no' magnetism to it. -JerryC
