Drain Plug size: M12 X 1.75do you know what magnetic plug size is there? what would be your suggestion on eCVT oil change? every 30k?
Good brands to google for:

... all have neodymium magnets, avoid cheap Chinese brands.
I plan on pumping out half the brake fluid, and also the eCVT fluid, both every 1 or 2 years, instead of full fluid changes. Easiest to do. Turkey baster for the brake fluid, and an oil extractor electric pump (cheap on Amazon) for the eCVT where the fill plug is simple to access.
If you're one of those folks who take extra care:
Insist on using a 0w-20 that meets both Ford WSS-M2C962-A1 & MB 229.71, the best set of tests. Change factory-fill oil out at 1,000 miles. ........ Use an over-sized Fram XG3600 or similar Amsoil EAO34 oil filter for finer filtering and longevity. .........Put on a M12-1.75 neodymium magnet drain plug to catch some iron dust, with a copper or aluminum crush washer changed at every oil change. ....... Change oil 20% before the Oil Life Monitor goes to full-on Red Alert.
