These guys are legit awesome! They replaced my Prius head gasket in record time this past weekend. Prompt, professional, and very informative in their service... they knocked the whole process out within a couple hours, saving me a ton of coins. If you’re in the Central Valley, Sacramento or Bay Area, hit them up for your head gasket needs!
A Dub what did it cost you please?
A Dub how much u pay ?
drew michael Nope, not on the payroll. They traveled 90 miles to my residence and did all repairs in the driveway. 840 for parts, labor, and travel. Better than the 4500 my local shops were quoting me. But yeah, if you’re mechanically inclined to diy, by all means do so to save some of coins.
true d 840 for parts, labor, and travel to my place. Call or text them to get a quote for your specific vehicle and location. They were super quick with a response
A Dub The 30 dollars was for Bar’s Leaks Head Gasket Sealer added to the radiator.
Quick word of appreciation for the work that Gasket Masters Jack and Jenn did on my 2010 Prius. Not only do I appreciate that the car is back up and running, but that they did not mind having me and my 5 yr old mechanic-in-training watch over their shoulders while learning how the pros do the work. They did the work swiftly, all the while addressing our questions/concerns with smiles on their faces. They showed up on time, ready to rock-n-roll, which I always appreciate from anyone showing up at my home to do work.
I simply cannot think of ways I could receive better auto repair service! Will definitely keep Gasket Masters in mind for any future engine repair ... Thanks again, Jack and Jenn!
You’re welcome. Thank you for your business.
This video saved me thousands of dollars. It took me 10 days working on and off, but this kept me on track and could pick it back up when I had time. I did have an issue after starting it for the first time where it was running really rought and I was getting a Check Hybrid System message, so I reset the hybrid system (there is another video on RUclips about the steps to do this) and everything is kosher now. Thank you very much for the video and being so in depth.
still runs fine?
Thanks very much for this video. Coupled with your earlier video, this gives a very clear view of the work involved, and lots of tips. One quibble, if you don't mind:
Around 18:50 mark, you recommend for removing the head bolts, a "size 12 triple-square". I think this will work, but the Repair Manual recommends "10 mm bi-hexagon wrench". The two have the same number of points, and very close dimensions, but the points on the Toyota recommendation are 60 degree (corner of hexagon) and your recommendation has points that are 90 degree. The points on the triple square also protrude very slightly more, so that maybe compensates. Still, The Toyota recommendation is the more compatible fit, and is available, on amazon for example.
Mendel Leisk definitely makes a difference for me in how it’s seated more firmly, thanks for the tip.
Thank You for posting video. I just replaced my head gasket using this method. Only problem was disconnecting the fuel line. Had to pull injectors out. Went back in no problem with a little grease. Thank You again.
Awesome instructional video! That is the best background music.
Nicely done and informative video. I am a mechanically incline person but consider the amount of steps that go into this is amazing. I rather trust the pros. When my Prius needs a head gasket I will call you guys no doubt.
Great video best I have seen real world stuff.
I spoke to on the phone a few weeks ago very helpful. Nothing done on my priuis yet, going to get it looked at by another mechanic. I wish you guys were in NY. Love the video.
great job. you guys are like a master mechanic of prius. It is only a small piece of head gasket, but that is a huge labor.
Consider it a 100,000 mile maintenance. Just change it every 100k and keep going. This video will help you with the cost
A MASTER TECHNICIAN at work GREAT JOB!!! Awesome video
Thanks for your hard work and wisdom and God bless you and your family.
Loved this video. I completed the project and was a hero!
I think this video answered most of my questions I left in the voicemail, other than the new Toyota gasket shown in The Car Care Nut video and issues with the Felpro gasket kits and Toyota gasket kits and what appears to be not needing and only a few new gaskets while at it. Hadn't seen this video for some reason and glad RUclips AI or whatever randomly suggested.
What the Venmo? Almost worked. 🙂
Y'all are Saints! R/R our HG in two weeks....thanks again!!
Any silicone bead before placing the head gasket, or on the gasket before putting the cylinder head on, if so where?
I’ve got a 2010 Prius with 200,000 miles. #1 cylinder misfire, car shaking, coolant in oil etc. obvious blown head gasket. Used Bar’s Leak Sealer with carbon fiber. Worked like magic. No heater core issues. No more misfires etc. Thank you Bar’s....UPDATE 1/29/20. Have gone 500 miles since adding Bar’s.
Kool i might replace the metal its easy
Mr Yusuf what metal?
@@drewmichael4014 Gasket metal
Mr Yusuf There is nothing easy about doing a head gasket job on a Prius. I suppose if you are a mechanic and familiar with the car it can be done but it’s still time consuming and a dirty job. I’d rather be watching TV then under the hood!
a lot better than the old video!
AL You are right. We do between four and six Prius engines a day so cutting time by changing little parts of the plan here and there helps a lot. Instead of waiting for the heads to be machined at the machine shop we always have cylinder heads ready to go so there is no downtime
Does it have a timing cover crank seal? Do you replace it
What if I forgot the towel trick and the cams moved out of place. The timing is off now but I’m not sure where to go from there
Awesome work, great video, thanks a lot guys keep them coming
Good job guys i love it made it look easy did you guys check for warping of the cylinder thats a big issue to i learned the hard way on a 2008 nissan maxima lol
Cameron Millow No. We just hope and pray. Lol.
hi master
wi want to see more details every work you do i will see.
thank you-
Thank you for taking this video
Thanks. You people have valuable skills.
Took a couple decades to hone. Thank you
im not event the auto mechanic but just your video..thank
Stop stealing our business without donating. 😂🤣😂🤣.
Your welcome.
After watching your last video, I was able to change the head gasket, thank you! I’m throwing a P0016 error code now. What’s the next step?
Timing is off.
MAYBE crank or cam sensor, but most likely; timing is off.
Gasket Masters my 2011 Toyota Prius is overheating, how I can now if is the head gasket
@@danielf1016 Put gasket sealer
Thanks for the video guys. It’s a life saver literally. I blew the gasket on my Prius and called around for estimates. They we’re all for more than the car is worth and that’s without fixing the head if it’s warped. Just one question. Should I disconnect the HV battery before starting this?
No. You can leave it attached as long as you follow the video step by step
Gasket Masters which gasket set do you guys use?
I got oil leak like seep on the crank position sensor and oil pressure knot sensor by the pulley. do you think think it is the head gasket?
No. I think it’s the timing cover or timing chain tensioner gasket
what is estimate labor to replace them?
James T should be no more than 2-300
weird, i performed the above procedure, reconnected all, did all like in the video (and like in other folks' videos too).
Can't get a 'ready' light from it now. Reconnected hybrid battery orange plug and 12v battery is full.
Getting P0301, P0352, and P0403 codes. dropped battery - reconnect, get codes again. The relays seem to do something, but engine isn't even cranking. new spark plugs/coils there. All grounds connected. EGR plug is firm. All wires seem to be ok...WEIRD.
Thank you .. very excellent video!!!
Do you guys normally use the head bolts again or no? I hear some folks it's "recommended"
Thanks for the awesome tutorial.
You guys are 3rd Gen Prius frickin artists. Great works Bro's. Question: at 34:50 where is your jack point on the oil pan? I assume you are placing wood on your jack so as not to dent the oil pan. Have u ever dented the pan due to the weight o the engine?? Thanks in advance and keep the videos on the 3rd Gen Prius coming!!
It’s to the side of plug.
Engine isn’t heavy enough to do anything to the pan.
Wow man... If the demand ever slows down in CA area, you guys should go on a tour to visit other states. But by the time you eventually get back home, you will have been retired already:)
Awesome video extremely helpful and I've begun work on my 2012 prius v using both of the videos you have uploaded I am stuck however trying to get the bolt pointed out at 6:50 I have tried everything and can not figure out how get get my hands let a lone a tool down there.
Rami Goehner try using a wrench and reach from the back side near exhaust
@@gasketmasters well I guess it kind of helped lol but it was a pain in the ass. Aside from that everything else went pretty smooth thanks to this video got it all back together and running. Thanks again!
Freaking great video! Saw the one where you showed the gaskets fail near #1 cylinder almost every time. That a flaw in the OEM gasket design, or the head itself too narrow right there? Do you guys have a favorite replacement gasket? Thanks a million.
QC Support we’re posting two videos explaining, in detail, why the head gasket fails, and why the EGR plugs up tomorrow evening.
anyone else have issues removing the studs behind the engine? ive removed one but the one under the metal pipe is impossible; been trying for hours
Safe to reuse head bolts?
I Love your work, but one thing that puzzles me, is why are their other mechanics on their channels taking 2hrs to replace a head gasket?
Because those people don’t do Prius head gaskets as much as the master himself.
Its all about video production and how quick you can explain... also he works in a non salt (seized bolts) are of the country. Most cars are not in that good of condition after 10+ years / 100k miles
After bolting on the timing cover, I got lost when it came to your installing the timing chain tension-er. How do you reload the tension-er. Please provide steps. There was that hook you mentioned earlier when removing it the tension-er an compressing it.
Where is your shop located? I got P0301 error and already replaced Spark Plug and Fuel Injection Cleaned. Losing coolant a lot. It is time to change Gasket. Thanks for your video.
Thandar Ye you have to call or text 209-305-1672
Is this a problem that occurs in all 2ZR-FXE engines? If so, at what mileage? Thank you for sharing this video.
Yes. We’ve seen it as early as 88k miles and as late as 185k (of course ones that last longer never meet us)
Most common mileage is 130k-140k
@@gasketmasters Good to know, thank you. I have a 2015 that's currently at 101k miles. Is there any specific preventative maintenance that can help avoid this problem from occuring?
@@PedroRamirez-zy5dv clean egr, but you have 2015 so i would not worry about it, the 2015 is 4th gen should not have this issue.
@@sergeychudan8467 2015 Prius is 3rd gen the 4th gen started with the 2016 models.
Thank you for your video!
How much will be cost to do it on Prius 2011? I have the same problem.
What city are you located?

Why is the Prius airbox so massive for such a weak engine?
Why don't you disconnect the 12V-battery and the high voltage battery? The orange cables are being touched alot and the inverter. How do you check they are still safe and not worn or broken?
Carpe diem There is honestly no need.
Do u HAVE to remove the timing chain tensioner BEFORE u remove the timing chanin cover? Is that mandatory?
Yes, Can stress the aluminum it threads into in to removed before cover
Can you recommend anyone in the state of PA who can perform a head gasket replacement on a 2010 Toyota Prius?
How much for head gasket replacement cost
Why don't you use seal packing on the head gasket? On the repair manual for toyota it says to use seal packing before installing the head gasket and to install the head gasket with in 3 minutes of the seal packing application.
Ismael Rodriguez The Toyota repair manual also says to use OEM Toyota Head Gasket, see how well that went?
@@gasketmasters so if you use an OEM gasket you don't have to use the seal packing? So why would they state to use it? Not trying to cause any problems I'm a CNG bus mechanic and I've never heard anything about using this sealer on head gaskets. We do it just like you do it.
Ismael Rodriguez We never use sealer, ever.
@@gasketmasters thank you for your time in responding. This videos are great very good detail. Keep up the good work.
@@gasketmasters i replaced the head gasket and got the head resurfaced I'm done with the car but now it's making a weird noise not really knocking but similar. It sounds kind of like abd exhaust leaking
why is the engine exterior so clean? how many miles on it?
AL about 350,000 miles. We clean as much as we can before we perform the work
how much this job would normally cost? I think eventually I will need this service. The bad news is that I live in San Francisco bay area everything cost a lot more than other places. I'm I will go to somewhere remote where people can take a lower price for doing things.
They are in the SF Bay area
I got quotes ranging from $4100 (independent shop) to $7000 (dealer). These guys fixed it where it was for a fraction of either price.
Great video
Thank you from Ukraine!
You’re welcome from California
Thank you god bless! Gracias
Please tell me the Torx wrench size
It is a "Triple Square" bit - 12mm

Cute kid.
Lots of work but it can be done lol

They don’t make a rubber gasket for it. It’s supposed to be black silicone
