Head gasket. Update: taking it to the shop end of May. Head gasket failure at Cylinder #1 (coolant leaked into cylinder). Gasket appears to be made of layered silicon and metal, and silicon portion failed over time. While head out being machined, many other systems updated/replaced, including electric water pump, timing chain, ECM updates (3), and rear oil-filled shocks that were failing. |
| 124000 mi US $5600 |
Piston #1 connecting rod broke, crippling engine. Entire short block assembly, previous head repair added to new block. Essentially rebuilt entire engine for a price equivalent to the value of the car. Although obvious in hindsight, at time of head gasket repair there was no indication of scoring or other sign of piston #1 excessive stress/strain. |
2011 Lexus CT 4dr Hatch
98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD
| 223000 mi US $2800 |
Head gasket. When first failed added Bars Leak and that worked for a couple of years and thousands of miles. |
