I work at a shop and had this same car come in today with the same issue. Was lookin all over, couldn't see exactly where the coolant leak was coming from. So what sooo what do I do? I Googled it and what do ya know. 1st thing that comes up is a thumbnail for this video. Yea so 2600 to 3000 for a head gasket job. Yea I got some bright eyes from the customer on that one, but I didn't build it, brake it, or buy it. she didn't want to put that kind of money in it, so I just told her to baby it along

You will need that insulator diaper thing. Well not right away but it keeps the heat off that plastic intake. After a while if it doesn't get put back on the intake will get heat soaked, bc brittle & crack. But it wouldn't happen for a while depending how often you drive it. Might last for ever or might end up cracking the intake in a few months.

And here I thought I had it rough with the intake manifold on my 1996 toyota tacoma which has the engine essentially rotated 90 degrees. Much easier to access. After I watched the whole video I saw it's not exactly the same. My manifold has an upper, and lower section

Did one that was locked up. replaced the motor with a recycled motor took three days because had to disassemble the lower half to turn crank which was a pisser. . To get the flywheel to turn. some cussing happened. .lol good job Eric even if I'm 4 yrs late.

Very importantly advice: NEVER BUY ANY TOYOTA WITH THIS ENGINE! it is defective and will cost you thousands of dollars. Toyota knows, they dont care. Just happened to me too.

Any video that rips apart an engine (or intake in this case) is great! Combine that with it being a SMA video. then well, you have hit the top of the mountain boys and girls.

I've seen a lot of your videos but this is the first Toyota I've seen with problems. My wife's 2009 Corolla has never gone under the knife. Interior looks like new.

Hopefully the newer 2018 Rav4 is a little cleaner to take apart. While I'm hoping maybe I'll never have a problem with the intake or the head gasket.
