Just be careful who you take your car too. It is no 5k civic. So you get what you pay for in the end. Their are soo many horror stories on here that people try to save a buck, and in the end get screwed with unecessary things that went south. Replacing a headgasket is no easy task either.

If you are near a good shop. Get it done there instead of dealer.

Labor will be about $500-$600 + machine fee. Mitsu multilayer headgasket is $55. ARPs are $100.
