Problems:
Oil leaks
Older vehicles like the 1987 Volkswagen Scirocco are prone to oil leaks, often due to deteriorated gaskets and seals.
Overheating
The cooling systems in vehicles from this era can become inefficient over time, leading to overheating issues.
Worn timing belt
The timing belt in older engines can wear out and may need periodic replacement to avoid engine damage.
Carburetor issues
As a 1987 model, the Scirocco might have carburetor-related problems such as clogging or poor fuel-air mixture.
Ignition system problems
Faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or distributor caps can cause starting issues or poor engine performance.
Vacuum leaks
Cracked or damaged vacuum hoses can lead to engine performance problems such as rough idling or stalling.
Fuel pump failure
The fuel pump may wear out over time, leading to issues with fuel delivery to the engine.
Exhaust leaks
Older exhaust systems can develop leaks, causing increased noise and potential emissions issues.
Valve cover gasket failure
The valve cover gasket can degrade over time, leading to oil leaks and reduced engine performance.
Worn piston rings
Over time, piston rings can wear out, leading to decreased compression and increased oil consumption.
