Search on Gold Plug. Made in USA. They make drain plugs for Jaguars from 2009 or older. "Maybe" the older Jaguar models' drain plugs might fit into your Jag

Have not seen, or come across any magnetic plugs for these to date. Many on here use the MityVac or similar system, and do not drain their oil, so many may not be looking?

I use an EZ (ball style) plug with a drain hose for mine. You could consider finding another compatible MAGNETIC drain plug as the size is: M14-1.50; Head Size 16MM. These also have a seal washer on them.




Good luck.

Or, you can just cut the engine oil filter open and inspect the pleats. You’ll see more contaminants in it, especially non ferrous particles, if you’re that concerned.

I do that too! And an oil analysis.
