Oil plug gasket....

[xtremeskier97]

Where do you'll get your oil plug gasket (crush washer, etc) from? Ive looked in all the stores locally and I can only find the nylon ones and the ones with rubber and metal.

What 'flavor' do you'll use?

My car currently does not have one. It doesnt leak, but I want one there anyway. I bought the nylon ones because I have to do an oil change tomorrow.

thanks guys!

The dealer sells them, I buy them in a 10 pack

I dont know if these fit a Camry, but you can order them online

How much does a 10 pack from the dealer run you? My 93 camry takes a M12 1.25 mm bolt.

I have nothing significant to add except GOOD FOR YOU THAT YOU ACTUALLY USE CRUSH WASHERS! that is really good insurance.

Yeah, I just got the car (step brother had it before me) and it doesnt have one..but I definitely like to use them. Not only is it GOOD insurance..but it's CHEAP insurance.

That link that Dana provided is for Part # 90430-12031 (bag of 10), that's the same item that the Toyota parts guy gave me for my '95 Camry. And yes, he gave me the bag of ten, I had just bought a couple filters and a new drain plug then asked him about crush washers, he just gave me the bag at no extra cost - I didn't realize that this was a $10 item.

For my Accord, the crush washers are $0.15 each, my my old Volvo they were $0.50 each. But even at $0.80, the price is still minimal considering you only need one every four or five months.

By the way, at the trdparts site I'm only seeing, well, trd parts. Where can I buy "normal" Toyota oil filters for $5 or so?

So those are M12 washers? Nice...I might just order them.

Tax free NH, but you have to pay shipping.

you guys pay for them? when i buy my oil filters from the local dealership, they come in the box.

What's the point in the crush washers? If it doesn't leak without them?

hmm...Im gonna call the dealership right now to see how much it is and if the washers come with it.


**EDIT**

Just got off the phone with the local deal. $46.33 after tax for 10 filters and $26.70 before tax for 10 plug gaskets.

The filters are a good deal...but the gaskets are REDICULOUS in price!

Gotta link to your dealer? Will they ship? How much is 10 filters with 10 gaskets?

It might be cheaper to order from your dealer and have them ship it to me.
