Detailed Description

Apex AVC883S is built for vehicles that need a valve cover reseal on the 1.8L hybrid platform used in many Prius-family models. Compatible With 2010-2016 Toyota Prius, 2012-2016 Toyota Prius V, 2012-2015 Toyota Prius Plug-In, 2011-2016 Lexus CT200h, 2017-2020 Toyota Prius, 2017-2020 Toyota Prius Prime, 2019-2020 Toyota Prius AWD-e, 2017 Toyota Prius V, and 2017 Lexus CT200h, this gasket set addresses the sealing surfaces associated with valve cover service. The AVC883S part number helps identify the correct application when replacing a leaking or aging valve cover seal on a Toyota Prius or Lexus CT200h.

What It Helps Address

• Oil seepage around the valve cover perimeter
• Oil residue near the cylinder head and ignition area
• Worn spark plug tube seals on serviced engines
• Degraded grommets that no longer maintain sealing pressure
• Maintenance-related resealing after valve cover removal

Installation Notes

Clean the mating surfaces thoroughly before installation and inspect the valve cover for warpage, cracks, or contamination. Replace damaged fasteners, grommets, and tube seals only when the application calls for them, and follow the vehicle service procedure for torque sequence and tightening specifications. Confirm fitment by year, make, model, and engine configuration before ordering. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
