    What should I expect to pay to replace the head gasket for my 2010 Prius?

    Any recommendations for a mechanic in the Philadelphia (Ardmore), PA area to do the work?


    I think that this will be a sizable expense and it is frustrating because it has less then 100,000 miles

    Never mind. It turns out that the issue was that the garage that did the oil change last week put in too much oil. The head gasket repair is not needed at this time.
