Changed my oil temp sender and noticed the crush washer is pretty flat. Had to tighten the sender pretty good to almost-stop an oil leak.

Does the crush washer need replacement after boing used once or twice ?

Any easy sources for these from flaps ?

It's like the crush washer on the oil drain plug, or the screen plate - good for one use only, or they will either leak or cause you to over-torque (niether of which is good).

Should be able to find them at any VW dealer...or there's always Uncle George.
