noob questions for oil change supplies.

Hi. Want to get my oil changed, and bring the parts with me. I think I got what I need, but would like to double check with the team here.

1. Filter. MZ690116 Oil Filter OEM Mit. $13 on Amazon.

2. Mobil 1 120764 Synthetic Motor Oil 5W-30 5 quarts. $25 on Amazon.

3. Crush washer. 5 pack for $18 on amazon. Do I need this???

Thats all.. right?

Thanks everyone!

I've never changed the crush washers on any of my cars or motorcycles. Never had a problem. Some people change them... some don't. But anyway... that's all you need. Good to go.

I generally put like 4.5 quarts in, and keep the rest of the bottle in my trunk in case I should ever need it. Definitely not a full 5.

Ask your local dealer if they are near you. IF they're nice enough, they could give you one for no charge. If they charge you, buy it in bulk
