Great price for “crush” washers. The fiber does most of the sealing, I think. Swapped out the original GM plug for a magnet plug, this fits great. The outside diameter is a little smaller than the flange on the plug but that’s ok. I used the Votex “Made in Wisconsin” plugs sold on here, flange is same size as stock GM plug, and this washer is the same size as the original rubber washer. Torqued to factory specs (25 Nm) was no leakage when first installed. Just finished a 300 mile trip, no leaks, no drips, it’s holding up! I will drill it out a little for the 1/2” plug I have. 1st pic is this crush washer over a copper one, second is copper over the OEM plug to show coverage. The aluminum washer at the bottom is what comes with the Votex plug. You can see the copper washer is a (very) tiny bit larger. Edit: Drilling it out isn't as easy as I thought, a 1/2" bit just digs in and snags the aluminum, so I started with a 15/32" bit and reamed it while holding it cupped in my fingers. Use the 1/2" bit to determine the finished size. A 31/64" bit is a snug fit in the original hole, but my 15/32" bit worked better, i think it was sharper. Edit 8/23/22: I just did an oil change on the second vehicle, and the drain plug was loose! I could take it off by hand!! Both vehicles had this issue, I thought the first one might be a fluke, but the second confirms the issue. I tightened both to factory specs with torque wrench 25 n/m (18ft/lb). There is some kind of brown fiber pieces around the edge of the gasket, both had that. It wasn't leaking, and I'm amazed it had't fallen out. The one vehicle went 5,700 miles, the other 3000. I am using the Votex Stainless Steel Plug with this, so not sure if this is a gasket issue, or a plug issue, but I would assume the gasket. I reused the plug with a new gasket, this time torquing to 40n/m (30ft/lbs). I think I felt the gasket crush, so hopefully it stays tight. I will check back in next oil change which will be in November. Edit 10/12/22: After torquing one new gasket to 40N/M it was loose again after only 15miles. The plug was hand tight. The other vehicle I torqued tighter also was loose. Apparently these do not have enough friction to keep the plug from loosening. See the two pics I added, the glue that holds the fiber onto the aluminum melts with heat, the fiber wafer easily peels off of the surface. Maybe the glue has failed and allows the plug to turn, I can't verify the cause, but I do know that the plug loosens up after a very short time. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT.

Smart to provide an reusable zip lock envelope with the product label on it: easier to find for next oil change. With the label, easy to tell apart from other crushable washers for other vehicles. This little extra effort in packaging made our life easier and less chance of error. Better than the hard, clear plastic packaging you have to break apart and can't retain the washers in except to re-tape. And who has tape handy that works on that hard clear plastic packaging?

Worked for Prius 2011 and Corolla 2014 for the annual oil change. They worked great.

Seems to have worked well. Installed a few months ago and no oil leak.
