Magnetic Drain Plug?
Does the RX-8 have a magnetic drain plug in the transmission? I was wondering because my transmission is broken and the dealer drove it and said they found noting wrong. But since i know something is wrong, if they drained the transmission fluid if they would see metal peices possibly, and more so if the drain plug was magnetic. Some cars have these so that when something does break the metal peices get attatched to the drain plug instead of floating around in the oil.
