Problems:
Brake fluid leaks
Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, calipers, or master cylinder, leading to reduced braking efficiency.
Brake fade
Extended use of brakes, especially in heavy traffic or downhill driving, can cause brake fade due to overheating.
Warped brake rotors
Frequent hard braking can cause brake rotors to warp, resulting in vibration or pulsation when braking.
Brake pad wear
Over time, brake pads wear down and need to be replaced to maintain proper braking performance.
Engine misfire
The in-line 4-cylinder configuration can sometimes experience misfires due to issues with spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors.
Fuel injector problems
Direct Injection engines like the LWN can encounter problems with clogged or faulty fuel injectors, leading to poor engine performance.
Turbocharger issues
If the engine is equipped with a turbocharger, it may face issues like turbo lag, boost leaks, or turbo failure.
Timing chain wear
Over time, the timing chain can stretch or wear out, which can affect engine timing and performance.
Cooling system problems
The engine may face issues with the cooling system, such as radiator leaks, water pump failure, or thermostat malfunctions, leading to overheating.
Carbon build-up
Direct Injection engines are prone to carbon build-up on the intake valves, which can affect engine performance and fuel efficiency.
