Clarification on manual trans & differential crush washers part numbers
#26
Registered
I've had cars for years and never replaced the oil drain plug washers. Sometimes they got paper thin after lots of changes, but never had a leak.
I eventually did start replacing washers, but that was when I started to buy filters from dealers rather than K-mart, and they'd include the washers for maybe a quarter apiece. So I now have a box full of washers only used once. If they match the size needed here, I'll be happy to let them go for half the dealer prices quoted here.

///// Upscale Zoom-Zoom
Mazda dealer was a great deal on the crush washers for the differential and MT fluid drain and fill bolts. The new part # for the non-copper ones are correct above and I added proof of the cost and part number:
Diff and tranny crush washers for 2010 GT.
Diff and tranny crush washers for 2010 GT.

or just use my logic - the savings I amass by changing the MT fluid and Diff fluid myself makes the $4-6 price tag for washers that much sweeter. Mazda's crush washer crush quite well and seal EVERY TIME. Try that on a SARS-CoV-2 laden $0.35 part from somewhere else that's harder and may not seal every time and starts leaking when you head out on a 800 mile trip to DGRR.
