Problems:

Oil leaks
Common in older engines, oil leaks can occur from valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, or crankshaft seals.
Head gasket failure
Can lead to coolant mixing with oil, resulting in overheating and potential engine damage.
Timing chain issues
Timing chains can stretch or fail over time, leading to poor engine performance or catastrophic engine failure.
Spark plug wear
Worn or fouled spark plugs can cause misfires, poor fuel economy, and rough idling.
Fuel injector problems
Dirty or faulty fuel injectors can lead to poor engine performance and decreased fuel efficiency.
Mass air flow sensor failure
A faulty MAF sensor can cause incorrect air-fuel mixture, leading to rough running or stalling.
Excessive oil consumption
Older engines, particularly with high mileage, may consume more oil due to worn piston rings or valve seals.
Catalytic converter failure
Can lead to loss of power, increased emissions, and failed emissions tests.
