You don't need to change the sump bung but its recommended to change the washer. Sometimes you'll get one with a filter, but they're cheap anyway.

Yes, Millers is a good quality oil. I've been using Millers CFS for the last 4 or 5 years.

Millers is great oil, speak to Alyn he will see you right,

Changing the washer is recommended, no need to change the bolt itself, If your feeling really particular you can crank the car for 20 secs without starting it up.. (remove the crack sensor or use a wire on the positive terminal of the starter motor to get some oil pumped round again before firing her up, make sure the oil light goes out straight away and pre fill the oil filter before fitting etc.)
