    I tried ordering the oil cooler ring/gasket for my st165 on toyotapartsoverstock.com, it is apparently discontinued, anybody has an ide where I could find a replacement part??

    It is a really simple part, just a little ring on the oil cooler banjo bolt...

    Part # 1578588380

    Maybe something like this could do?
    (This is just an example - probably not the right size)

    For anyone interested in final resolution, I ended up using aluminum crush washers from a plumbing website.
    E.g.
    http://www.anplumbing.com/Extras/Washers+6+O-rings-63.html

    [TABLE="class: manufacturer_1, width: 550"]
    [TR="class: odd"]
    [TD="class: productId, align: center"]177008ERL[/TD]
    [TD="align: center"]3/4[/TD]
    [TD="class: description"]Aluminum Crush Washers. Qty. 5 Per Pkg.
    [/TD]
    [/TR]
    [/TABLE]
    I don't remerber the size, though. I *think* the best fit was 3/4, it was a bit tricky to keep properly centered while tightening it up.
    Anyway, my oil leak is fixed and I am happy.
    Had to remove the turbo to get there, plus the diagnostic headache.

    ...So much work to change such a simple 75cent part.
