Crush Washer Sizes
I tried searching but no luck.
Does anyone know what size crush washers are used on the differential fill and drain plugs? I saw the oil plug is M16, are these the same? I really don't see the need to drive into town and pay a dealer when you can get them from the local auto parts store for $1. I'd just like to know which sizes to pick up ahead of time, instead of pulling it off and taking it up. Thanks! |

I just bought some from the local dealership for the diff. They were crush washers.

That makes sense. Any chance you can get the size and we can look for a reasonably priced replacement option?

Even those should be crush washers. When you use one of the new ones you'll feel it crush. Honda's been using that style for a long time. They look like normal washers, until you use them the first time. I wonder if my old S2K ones would fit...

My point is when you reuse them at least the first time they seal and don't leak what so ever. I am all for changing out something if there is a benefit but if it doesn't leak than its working.

My point was simply that I highly doubt they are normal washers, despite their appearance.

For this first change I re-used them even since I haven't gotten my replacements in yet.

So I just received my overpriced gaskets/washer for the transmission and the differential:
Differential fill plug gasket: SU00300122 - 24mm OD x 18mm ID x 2mm Crush Differential drain plug gasket: TOY1215710010 - 24mm OD x 18mm IDx 2mm Crush Transmission fill/drain plug gasket: SU00303626 - 24mm OD x 18mm ID x 2mm Flat They all look to be aluminum but that is just a guess. All measurements were made with calipers. Edit: The crush washers stuck to the magnet on the drain plug so I guess they are not aluminum Left Image is the diff drain/fill gaskets and they look identical. They are the exact same outer/inner diameter and thickness. They are both crush type washer. The right image is the transmission fill/drain plug gasket is the same size as the differential gasket but is a flat washer. After I pull the transmission gasket I will compare the thickness of the used and the new gasket to see if the transmission flat washer did actually "crush". Edit: The original flat washer was within a 1000th of an inch of the new flat washer so I would guess they are not meant to crush. When I order the differential crush washers again I will just order two of the same part number instead of two different parts. Last edited by developer; 12-04-2012 at 02:01 AM.
