Hey guys,

Does anyone know what the part number is for the crush washers for changing the diff fluid? That is the only other thing I think it needs by looking at the maintenance history. Thanks!

looks like its the correct part number for it.

In case you can't find a new one I just reused the original washer. It was not flattened and since the diff is not in any way pressurized you can get a away with reuse with little risk. Just be sure you check that you can loosen the fill plug bolt first before loosening the drain plug and draining.

Toyota dealer stocks the same part, just give them the number if they are closer than Lexus for you.

Your NAPA store should have a box of crush washers that they can match up to yours if you take one in with you.

skip the new washer, correctly torque the bolt on old one and you'll be fine. I did and no problems.

Dude....seriously WTF???? Dont listen to that. You spend that kind of money on this car I'm pretty sure you can buy 2 *****ing washers for $1 each. Torque to 37 ft-lbs. Else a Honda Civic is more forgivin to cheap out on maintenance......
