Where can I stock up on MB washers?
As many of you know the washers that fit Mercedes are not to be found among the much wider ones in places like Home Depot or Lowes. I can only get those specialty washers either with the filters that I buy online or from the local MB repair shops. However there are cases where I'm not replacing any filters but I need a new washer after removing a bolt. Does anyone know where to stock up on them?

i have found washers that will work in a pinch at autozone, they are brass with a rubber center, i just save the washers from each oil change, and only use a new one when the existing one starts to look worn:p

Diesel Addict,
What kind are you looking for? I think I have saved a baggie full as I use the "Topsider" method to change in the kit as a result. So, they are "brand new" but sitting in a baggie. If you want them send me a PM and tell me your address and I will send you a handful. Good Luck, Jim
