Timing belt/chain problems
Timing components may wear prematurely, causing noise, poor performance, or even engine damage if the timing belt/chain fails.
Fuel injector problems
The fuel injectors can become clogged or fail, leading to misfiring, poor fuel economy, and reduced engine performance.
Ignition coil failures
The ignition coils may fail, causing misfires, rough idling, and difficulty starting the engine.
Transmission issues
Though not part of the engine, transmission problems are common in Ford Fiesta models and can affect overall vehicle performance.
Excessive oil consumption
The engine may consume oil excessively, leading to the need for frequent top-ups and potential engine damage if oil levels are not maintained.
Sensor failures
Various sensors (e.g., oxygen sensor, MAF sensor) may fail, leading to check engine lights and poor engine performance.
