Clairparts.com They give discounts if you buy a bunch. (Be sure to also get the washers too!)

Default (Be sure to also get the washers too!) <- Odd thing about that...

I picked up the five pack and went to change my oil but we couldn't get the old washer off the plug... It was a totally different washer then the ones I got from Clair. Oh... I've got a early build 2000 model year, if that matters.

Default Audi changed the plug design...

...somewhere along the way to include a washer that is not removeable. I believe they expect you to replace the plug/washer assembly every time instead of just the washer like the older system.

Default Thanks! (More...)

Wow... Do you think that is necessary?

Anybody else do this with the updated plug design? If so, where do you get the assembly?

Thanks guys! (and Andy!
