The high-performance V-shaped engine may experience overheating issues, especially under extreme driving conditions or due to cooling system failures.

The turbocharged (TC) nature of the engine can lead to turbocharger wear and failure, resulting in reduced power and efficiency.

The direct fuel injection system (DIRECT FUEL INJECTION) could develop issues such as clogged injectors or fuel pump failures, leading to poor engine performance.

Prolonged use may cause the timing chain to stretch or wear, which can affect engine timing and lead to potential engine damage.

The high-performance nature of the AMG GT's engine might result in higher oil consumption, requiring frequent oil top-ups and monitoring.

Issues with the ignition system or fuel delivery can cause engine misfires, which can damage the engine if not addressed promptly.

The complex cooling system essential for a high-performance engine can fail, leading to overheating and potential engine damage.

Various sensors (such as oxygen sensors, MAF sensors) critical for engine management may fail over time, causing erratic engine performance.

The DBS system may fail to engage properly, resulting in a lack of braking assistance during emergency situations.

In-line engines, like the M256, can experience misfires due to issues with fuel injectors, spark plugs, or ignition coils.

The turbocharger (TC) may develop problems such as oil leaks, bearing failures, or compressor wheel damage, affecting engine performance.

Direct fuel injection systems can encounter issues like clogged injectors or high-pressure fuel pump failures, leading to poor engine performance.

Some M256 engines may consume more oil than expected, often due to piston ring or valve seal wear.

The timing chain tensioner in the M256 engine may fail, leading to potential timing chain slack and engine timing issues.

The M256 engine's cooling system might experience failures in components like the water pump or thermostat, causing overheating.

The ECU may develop software or hardware issues, resulting in poor engine performance or erratic behavior.

Components such as the EGR valve or catalytic converters can fail, leading to increased emissions and potential engine check lights.

In-line engines can sometimes suffer from balance-related vibrations, especially if engine mounts wear out or fail.

Misfires can occur due to issues with the ignition system, fuel injectors, or a faulty spark plug, which can lead to reduced engine performance and efficiency.

The turbocharger in the M260 engine may develop problems such as oil leaks, bearing wear, or compressor wheel damage, resulting in reduced power and increased emissions.

Direct fuel injection systems can sometimes suffer from clogged or leaking injectors, which can lead to poor fuel economy, rough idling, and increased emissions.

The timing chain may stretch or wear over time, potentially causing engine misfires, poor performance, and even engine damage if not addressed.

Common in many engines, oil leaks can occur from various seals and gaskets, including the valve cover gasket, causing oil loss and potential engine damage if not corrected.

Problems with the water pump, radiator, or thermostat can lead to overheating, which can cause significant engine damage if not promptly addressed.

Various sensors, such as the mass airflow sensor (MAF) or oxygen sensors, may fail and cause the engine to run inefficiently or trigger the check engine light.

Direct injection engines are prone to carbon buildup on intake valves, which can lead to decreased performance, rough idling, and increased fuel consumption.

Though not directly related to the engine, issues with the transmission can affect overall vehicle performance, including rough shifting or transmission slipping.

Modern engines often require software updates to the engine control unit (ECU) to resolve various running issues or to improve performance and efficiency.
