Problems:

Overheating
The Mazda 929's V-shaped 6-cylinder engine can sometimes suffer from overheating due to issues such as a malfunctioning thermostat, a clogged radiator, or a failing water pump.
Oil leaks
This engine model may experience oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets or oil pan, which can cause low oil levels and potential engine damage if not addressed.
Timing belt failure
The 1991 Mazda 929's engine relies on a timing belt, which can wear out or break over time, leading to severe engine damage if not replaced at recommended intervals.
Ignition system issues
Problems with the ignition coils, distributor, or spark plugs can lead to misfires, poor engine performance, and difficulty starting the vehicle.
Fuel injector problems
Clogged or malfunctioning fuel injectors can cause uneven fuel distribution, leading to rough idling, poor fuel economy, and reduced engine power.
Coolant leaks
The engine may develop coolant leaks from the hoses, radiator, or head gasket, leading to potential overheating and engine damage.
Exhaust system issues
Corrosion or damage to the exhaust system components, such as the catalytic converter or muffler, can cause increased emissions, noise, and reduced engine performance.
Vacuum leaks
Cracked or disconnected vacuum hoses can lead to a variety of engine performance issues, including rough idling, stalling, and poor acceleration.
MAZDA MPV 1998

The 1998 Mazda MPV is a versatile minivan equipped with a 3.0L V6 engine, delivering between 137 and 167 horsepower. It features a hydraulic brake system, 4-wheel drive capability, and seats up to four passengers. Built by Mazda Motor Corporation in Hiroshima, Japan, this multipurpose passenger vehicle combines functionality with reliable performance.

Problems:

Brake fluid leak
Hydraulic brake systems rely on brake fluid to function. A common problem is leaks in the brake lines, master cylinder, or brake calipers, which can lead to reduced braking efficiency.
Brake fade
Extended use of brakes, especially under heavy load or high-speed conditions, can cause brake fade due to overheating, reducing braking performance.
Warped brake rotors
Repeated heavy braking can cause the brake rotors to warp, leading to vibrations and reduced braking effectiveness.
Worn brake pads
Brake pads wear out over time and need to be replaced periodically. Worn brake pads can lead to reduced braking performance and damage to the rotors.
Air in brake lines
Air bubbles in the hydraulic brake lines can cause a spongy brake pedal feel and reduce braking efficiency.
Oil leaks
V-shaped engines like the Mazda JEE V6 can develop oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets, oil pan, or other seals, which can lead to oil loss and engine damage.
Cooling system issues
V-shaped engines can have more complex cooling systems, which may develop leaks or blockages, leading to overheating.
Timing belt/chain problems
If the timing belt or chain is not properly maintained, it can lead to timing issues, poor engine performance, or even engine damage.
Ignition system issues
Problems with the ignition system, such as faulty spark plugs or ignition coils, can lead to misfires and reduced engine performance.
Fuel system problems
Issues with the fuel injectors, fuel pump, or fuel filter can cause poor fuel delivery, leading to reduced engine power or stalling.
Exhaust leaks
Exhaust leaks can occur at the manifold or other points in the exhaust system, leading to increased noise and potential emissions issues.
Sensor failures
Modern engines rely on various sensors for optimal performance. Failures in sensors like the oxygen sensor, mass airflow sensor, or throttle position sensor can cause performance issues and trigger the check engine light.
