    ATF washers are aluminum crush, they are 18mm but I am not sure about the exact inner diameter.

    Simplest way to get the right washers is to ask at a Toyota Parts Department. I'm confused regarding your fluid prices: is that per liter, or? In Canada my latest purchases, through Toyota parts department:

    Toyota 0W20 engine oil: $5.65 (CAN) per liter
    Oil pan drain plug: $0.95
    Oil Filter (just paper element and O-Ring): $8.22

    Toyota ATF-WS fluid (for transaxle): $9.32
    Transaxle drain/fill bolt washer: $2.75 (pricey!)
