What else at 1500 miles? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I finally hit 1500 miles. Aside from changing the oil is there anything else I need to do?

Hope you got the Roto Fab cold air intake installed. It makes the car a real eye opener when you get on the accelerator hard. The sound of hearing that blower whine is sure to put a smile on your face. If you don't have it yet then go get it. It's a game changer and makes the car much more fun!

Alot of people are doing magnetic drain plugs and magnetic oil filter magnets. That's an option. If you haven't already a catch can would be beneficial to your engine.

So just oil? I don't have any mods on it so no other fluids needs to be changed?

I had my differential fluid changed, they might try to talk you out of it but I thought that after the break-in it couldn't hurt. Not sure but I think either the differential or the oil plug are either both or one of them is magnetic from the factory.

By 1500 miles I had supercharger, Pedders complete suspension u/g, body mods done and car repainted.

Your oil didn't need to be changed, either. So no...no other fluids.

What does the magnetic drain plug do?

I Had The Computer Re-Flashed For A Record Of Proof That I Followed The Break-In Instructions In Case I Have Problems In The Warranty Period
