    Are these legitimate oil drain plug gaskets? I have a feeling they don’t come in a bag like this but I thought I’d ask the forums.

    Mine came that way. Where did you buy them? If you are worried, check the torque on the plug after a few drives. Some of the fakes (yes there are fucking chinesium versions of this too!) will have no heat tolerance and the felt disintegrates, which might leave you with a loose plug

    Yep, I bought the same bag off of Amazon. They appear legit.

    If any doubts, don't even use it. I've never had to change the original.

    The ones that have the problem are the aftermarket blue colored ones.
    Those in your picture look good to me.

    I used chinesium, no issues. It's just a crush washer, it'll be fine.

    Very true. On these parts…. I always just buy from the dealer just to be sure and that’s my recommendation to the OP

    Genuine or not, I'd avoid this type of gasket altogether because it sticks to the pan.
