i always just asked for the washer or they asked me if i wanted one aswell.

When I go to regents to get a genuine oil filter they usually give me the crush washer for free.

Yeah just get it from the dealer.

When I used to do my own servicing and I was buying parts from the dealer, I used to get them to tape the washer to the lid of the oil filter box so I wouldn't lose it.

Osborne Park subaru don't automatically supply the crush washer, when I've asked they supply it for free generally.

Maybe it was just the place I used to buy stuff from chucked a couple in the boxes without asking....Nevermind.

I get genuine filters from City Subaru and they supply a new crush washer free.

get a Fumoto valve then you don't have to worry about the washer

If you have a subaru sump plug washer already on your sump plug , you can use it again .Its a better option than using a copper washer which can split...

$40!!! Cant go wrong! Cheers for that, think I'll go fetch my credit card...

For a few dollars, buy a sump plug washer from a Subaru dealer - You can't go wrong. Buy 5 or 6 so there's a few spares on hand for future oil changes.
