Thanks so much for the video. I got a 2ZR-FE corolla and same coolant got in cylinder and I have a P0304. It has tap ping sound. The quote is very expensive and now I understand why; however, I hope I can take on this by watching your video again and again and may be I don't mess up. Thanks again.
Nice video, next time make sure you have oil on the threads of the head bolts before torqueing them, it will throw off the torque doing it dry, Also make sure you use assembly lube or at least some oil on those cams and cam journals before you install them.
TOO LATE HE DAMAGED THE CAMS ALREADY
I had this same issue & i thought is was a blown head gasket too , I replaced the egr cooler , cleaned the carbon from the intake manifold & egr valve, replaced the spark plugs, added an oil catch can ..........BOOM PROBLEM SOLVED 70K MILES LATER & THE CAR STILL RUNNING LIKE NEW
On your car did u have a check engine light before u fix it?
@@Noezen03 Yes, read misfire codes, first check for blown head gasket, if you do have a head gasket problem just use a bottle of steel seal itll fix it no problem
@@racingdreamz8021 NO THAT STUFF WILL CLOG UP THE RADIATOR THE HEATER CORE AND CLOG UP THE WHOLE COOLANT SYSTEM
DON'T BUY IT UNLESS YOUR TRYING TO SELL IT AS GOOD CONDITION
Great videdeo
@Carfix Please put the other torque specs in the video as well and you skipped allot of it putting valve cover gasket and timing chain tensioner
Great video thank you
Pry the timing cover at the top it will come off much easier.
Pretty good!
Good day sir.
My 2012 prius makes knocking and rattling noise when ever the engine starts and its charge the Hybrid Battery. On stand still or moving slowly. If I'm speeding the noise stops. I don't have any check engine light on. Scan does not show any issue.
I have changed the 4 plugs.
Cleaned the injectors, PCV valve, Intake manifold, throttle body, egr valve all cleaned. After cleaning all these the knocking and rattling sound remains.
It's comes one at slow speed only when the engine is on and hybrid battery is charging. If I match my pedal hard and speeds, the sound stops.
I noticed that this does not happen on cold start. It happens when the car is warned up.
When I removed the inlet manifold to clean it. I looked inside the engine. I noticed that all the inlet and outlet valves are carbon coated expect the cylinder to the extreme right. I noticed that, that cylinder inlet and outlet valves are half inch clean on top.
My coolant doesn't short and the engine oil does not show any signs of water in it. The car is now 140,000 miles on it.
My location is Lagos Nigeria 🇳🇬.
If its blown head gasket, is there a way I can check it?
Hi mate
You have to do again remove the injector clean manually (don't do spraying any chemical in engine start) do it manually
1st step.
If not working that way don't clean egr valve replace it
2 step
3 step
Replace egr cooler
sometime egr cooler slowly leaking coolent inside but we can't see it?
It's common fault in toyota.
Cleaning injector manually

You forgot to run a wire arround the back nylon guide to the upper part of the timing chain holding it in place in order when you put the timing chain cover on that the lower chain does not pop of the timing chain gear on the crank bottom. I found out the hard way. Had to remove the timing chain cover and reset the chain
I haven't seen this in any of these Prius hg videos...post a link to one so I can see how that is done.
Good job
What socket used for opening the head bolts
12 hex
What is best test i can see if my head gasket is failing my car still ok
Wow. Please do not follow this video. He did so many things wrong.
Didn’t set the crank to TDC. That’s why he’s struggling with the chain and timing LOL. Also he removed all the cams when he could have loosen four bolts and the entire cam cradle lifts together as a whole.
Cams are bad from rotating them dry.
I was wondering about the lack of TDC! I’m still learning, but I thought you’re supposed to lube up a lot of those parts, too. Maybe I’m not too far away as I thought!
Are you from uk? Where can I do this job in the uk if you have any recommendations? Thanks
No im in Australia
Ok thanks 😊
Hello 👋
How much for the head resurfacing and cleaning?
It cost me Aud $450
Pressure testing
Put new valve oil sel
Head refacing
@@carfix1993 WASTE OF MONEY
@@21boxhead Why do you say it’s a waste of money? (I’m trying to learn)
@@daveparker839 I SEEN PRIUS NEARLY 400,000 MILES ONLY HAD IT'S HEAD GASKET REPLACED ONCE EGR CLEANING TWICE NOTHING ELSE WAS REPLACED
BUT YEAH MAYBE AFTER 400K MILES I THINK IT'S BEST TO GIVE A VALVE JOB
👍👍👍
Did you notice milky oil cap after this job?
Yes
@@carfix1993 Thanks! for how long/how many oil changes does this last? I've done 2 oil changes and I still see the milky oil depositing on the cap.
Check head gasket leak test
If milky oil deposits on oil cap
May be coolent mix with oil
Stay away from GEN 3. The Toyota engineers blew it on GEN 3. Stay with GEN 2. No EGR valve, no electric water pump. no catch can necessary, no poorly located PCV valve, no water-cooled CAT, More. GEN 3 is not the 400k Prius. GEN 2 is. Sell before 100k.
My gen 3 runs smooth as silk, change oil every 5k 0-20 and zero issues. Take car of your car and and it will last years.
With GEN 3, taking care of your car means 1. New water pump at 100k. Plastic ring around impeller breaks from heat/cool cycles and jams impeller. 2. Change PCV valve at 100k. 3. Install catch can ASAP. 4. Get ready for EGR valve service or replacement. All can affect head gasket life, which is even worse on 2010-2012 because they are inherently weak. Luck only lasts so long. Oh, change out the non-synthetic WS ATF for true synthetic REDLINE D6. Every 50k.
@@amazoidal Yes gen3 prius has systematic issues with pcv valve and EGR. My gen3 prius 2012 blew head gasket at 177K miles. I did the head gasket replacemnt myself and found EGR cooler completely clogged with soot. When I took off air intake manifold, cylinder #1 intake was positively dripping with oil with pcv valve as most likely culprit. So with gen 3 prius, it's absolutely mandatory to install oil catch can and do regular cleaning on EGR valve and EGR cooler to prevent head gasket blowout. I also found my piston #1 rod was bent, causing piston in cylinder #1 to sit lower than cylinder #4. Luckily, piston rod #1 is not difficult to replace, as it's accessible after oil pan/oil pump removal. But the other three rods will require engine removal/disassembly.
@@springer-qb4dv I disassembled and cleaned the entire EGR system thoroughly and also installed a new air intake manifold about 40k miles ago. I now have 280k miles on my 2010 Base model Gen 3. I'm now starting to get rough start issues. The coolant level does not appear to be dropping. Any thoughts on how often the EGR system needs to be stripped and cleaned? Thanks.
@@steveo3494 check Nutzaboutbolts UA-cam channel. They have great videos in regards to maintaining your 3rd gen Prius. I am a newbie but watching their video gave me enough confidence to take on a few projects. Especially cleaning out the EGR valve and EGR cooler, along with the intake manifold. I also added a oil catch can. I just reached the 100,000 mile mark and hope my Prius stays happy.
Terrible video, missed about half of the important steps. I have done the same job, hardest part was removing the stupid and reinstalling the EGR cooler set up.
