Problems:

Oil leaks

The 7M engine is notorious for developing oil leaks, particularly around the head gasket and camshaft seals.

Head gasket failure

The 7M engines, especially in older models, are prone to head gasket failures due to the original torque specifications being insufficient.

Timing belt wear

As the engine ages, the timing belt can wear out and may require replacement to avoid catastrophic engine damage.

Overheating

Poor cooling system maintenance or a failing radiator can lead to overheating issues.

Electronic fuel injection problems

Faulty sensors or wiring issues can cause problems with the electronic fuel injection system, leading to poor performance or starting difficulties.

Valve stem seal wear

Over time, the valve stem seals can wear out, leading to oil consumption and smoke from the exhaust.

Idle control issues

Problems with the idle air control valve can cause rough idling or stalling, especially when the engine is cold.
