Problems:

Oil leaks
Older Mercedes-Benz engines, including the V8 engines from the '90s, are known for developing oil leaks, particularly from the valve cover gaskets and oil pan gaskets.
Worn timing chain
The timing chain and its associated components can wear out over time, leading to poor engine performance or potential engine damage if not addressed.
Vacuum leaks
Vacuum leaks are common in older vehicles and can cause rough idling, stalling, and decreased engine performance.
Faulty mass air flow sensor
The mass air flow (MAF) sensor can fail, leading to poor fuel economy, rough idling, and engine hesitation.
Ignition system issues
The ignition coils or spark plugs may wear out over time, causing misfires, rough running, and reduced fuel efficiency.
Cooling system problems
The cooling system, including the radiator and water pump, may develop leaks or failures, leading to overheating issues.
Crankshaft position sensor failure
A failing crankshaft position sensor can cause the engine to stall, start poorly, or not start at all.
Fuel injector problems
Clogged or leaking fuel injectors can cause poor engine performance, rough idling, and increased fuel consumption.
