Problems:

Engine misfire
V-shaped engines, especially those with 12 cylinders, can experience misfires due to complexities in fuel and air distribution.
Turbocharger issues
The engine is equipped with a turbocharger (TC), which can suffer from lag, overboost, or mechanical failure.
Timing chain problems
V12 engines like the M279 are known for timing chain wear, which can lead to engine timing issues.
Fuel injector malfunction
Direct Fuel Injection (DFI) systems can have problems with clogged or leaking fuel injectors.
Overheating
High-performance engines with complex configurations are prone to overheating, often due to cooling system failures.
Oil consumption
V12 engines can have higher oil consumption, leading to frequent top-offs and potential oil leaks.
Electrical system malfunctions
Modern engines have complex electrical systems that can fail, affecting engine performance and Dynamic Brake Support.
Exhaust gas recirculation (egr) problems
Issues with the EGR system can lead to poor emissions performance and engine knocking.
Wear and tear
High-performance engines experience more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan of components like spark plugs and belts.
Vibration and noise
V-shaped 12-cylinder engines can produce more vibration and noise, which may require additional damping measures.
