and ran it through the different rpm's to break in the engine)

are you talking redline rpms? I'de smell for gas in the oil, the rings may not have seated "optiminally"

How many miles on your car?

Where did you get the magnetic drain plug or what size is it? I want to get one as well, thanks.

[mmm]

About a thousand miles on my car ... the magnetic drain plug I bought is the AP-02 from Gold Plug

Thanks for the info! I noticed some sediments and a little bit of goop in my oil at 250 miles as well, but the oil was a light brown and slightly burnt wasn't as bad as yours was from it sounds like.

[mmm]

You're welcome! I wonder what the "goop" was ... probably just sludge ... I wish I had saved it and that oil for analysis.

I'm thinking assemble lube, maybe gasket maker. My camera on my phone wasn't cooperating to get a pic, but it should be interesting at 500 what it looks like.

As stated above . Very likely to be the sealant ( Form In Place Gasket ) from the factory . We had our YARIS engine repaired and that had particles in the oil and in the oil cap . The tech got a bit happy with the black Toyota F.I.P.G. ( Form In Place Gasket ) sealant . You may want to consider a U.O.A., just for kicks . We got a U.O.A. through Blackstone Labs ( http://www.blackstone-labs.com/ ) after this discovery of the black particles and all came back fine . Engine went on for another 50,000+ miles and hopefully still is . Traded it in .

I get my first oil change tomorrow ~7,500 mile. Dealer is doing it, now I want to watch what drains out. Hopefully if they see something they would say something.

They probably wouldn't notice or pay attention . Usually let it drain while doing other tasks . A U.O.A. would help confirm any issues and ease any concerns . Well worth the $25 > $30 including shipping / handling . May want to get a T.B.N. with the analysis at 5,000 > 7,500 miles to see how the oil is holding up . That adds a little more money . We go through Blackstone Labs , very good to deal with . Will take the time to talk to you over the phone . You can have the U.O.A. sent by e-mail , regular mail or both . Send the kit(s) for free with instructions .
