I just changed the gear oil in my 2001 new beetle turbo with a 02j/egx transmission and now it has a small leak from the drain plug. I have checked it out and it is not loose or stripped. How do I get it to seal again?

I believe there is a crush washer for the drain plug, if that wasn't replaced, that's most likely the culprit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Yes there is a crush washer that needs to be replaced when you install the drain/fill plug on the transmission pan.

Does anyone have a part number for that? My car didn't have a washer on it when I took it off. The car is equipped with the 02j/egx manual transmission.
