Default Gearbox sump plug washers?

Folks,


Just about to do a gearbox oil change on my 07 STi. Understand it has two drain plugs. Do either or both have crush washers to be replaced? If so, anyone know what size?


Thanks.


David

Yeh i have always just re used them never leaked i would have replaced them though if i could have got new ones but they are copper so I'm sure they can be re used unlike the crush ones in the engine sump that has to be replaced every time .
