Lil Bastard, with these measurements for a 2001, do you have an idea of the part name that they might recognize along with the measurements - A18 x 24mm
And another thing, when I was in Napa, I asked if they had any more Mobile 1 0W - 40 oil, and he looked at me like I was crazy and said, this car calls for 5W - 40 oil.....any thoughts????

Yea, they're not likely to have a computer listing for Porsche. At NAPA, they carry it as Oil Drain Plug Gasket, Part# BK 7041974, Product Line: Balkamp. I buy my filter kits online from Pelican and these contain both the crush washer and the O ring for the Filter cannister.
So far as the proper weight MB1, see if you have a local Mobil distributor listed in the yellow pages. They will often have a Will-Call desk and sell to the Gen'l Public, at a considerable saving. Last time I bought mine, it cost $3.85/qt. (case price) at the local distributor. Not only cheaper, but they carry the proper weight.
