Problems:
Engine misfires
Misfires can be caused by faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors. This can result in poor engine performance and increased emissions.
Oil leaks
Common in V-shaped engines, oil leaks can occur due to worn gaskets, seals, or oil pan issues. This can lead to low oil levels and potential engine damage.
Fuel system issues
Problems with the fuel injection system, such as clogged injectors or a faulty fuel pump, can affect engine performance and fuel efficiency.
Overheating
The V35A-FTS engine may experience overheating due to issues with the cooling system, such as a malfunctioning radiator, water pump, or thermostat.
Check engine light activation
Various sensor failures (oxygen sensor, mass air flow sensor, etc.) or emissions-related issues can trigger the check engine light.
Turbocharger problems
As a turbocharged engine, the V35A-FTS may encounter issues with the turbocharger, such as boost pressure loss, oil contamination, or turbo lag.
Timing chain wear
Over time, the timing chain may stretch or wear out, leading to poor engine timing and performance issues.
Carbon build-up
Direct injection engines like the V35A-FTS can suffer from carbon build-up on intake valves, leading to reduced performance and efficiency.
Battery and electrical issues
Modern engines with multiple electronic components can experience battery drain or electrical issues, affecting engine start and operation.
Exhaust system problems
Issues such as exhaust leaks, faulty catalytic converters, or muffler problems can affect engine performance and emissions.
