Differential Fluid Change Drain Plug - 10k & 40k
All I did my second differential fluid change and just wanted to share pictures below of the magnetic drain plug for both. Second still had decent amount of shavings on it.

Mobil 1 75w-90 Synthetic Gear Lube LS for the 40k change. Used Motul 300 for the 10k change but I don't track the car or give it a lot of abuse so went with the less expensive fluid this time around. Its GL-5 so I'm sure it will work fine.

Nothing to worry about. Both fluids are good, using M1 for years in my WRX rear diff.
