Greetings, It is a copper crush washer.... with crush in there it forms a gasket effect. N0138492 and I think bus depot has them for about $0.30 or your local vw dealer.

I own a 91carat that a friend of mine drove down from PA...It is now in hot South Florida and doing great. It does have a drop of oil on the bottom of the oil drain plug all the time....Im thinking it might be missing the washer? First off is it a washer or a gasket there that needs replaced......or both? Also this should be a fairly common part to find....or do I have to order off bus depot and such. Do you know the part number? Thanks for all your help Tim |
