Where To Get The Copper Ring For The Oil Plug

[Sneakyazn]

cant really describe it but its a copper ring that sits around the bolt that you unbolt every time you wanna take the old oil out. so yea if you know what im on about where do i get the copper rings as these are only meant to be one use only and basically it leaks small amounts of oil onto ur driveway if not replaced every service?

I believe you may be referring to a copper crush washer. These can be purchased from any Nissan dealership.

Just grab a bunch of genuine items from a dealership and change them whenever you do a oil change.

Doesn't HAVE to be genuine nissan... any auto parts store should have the washers in Champion handypacks, just ask around. make sure you take the old one down for size if you can, or just take the sump plug down.

If it's because the OEM own doesn't seem to be sealing? If so, you can anneal them with an oxy torch (or a camping stove). Heat them up to just rosy then let it cool down naturally in air. Makes the metal soft again, and can be recrushed.

I reused mine a few time - no problems.

Nissan dealership has them - 40c each from memory.

you dont have to go to nissan for a cooper washer, any auto stores will have them
