Problems:
Oil sludge buildup
Oil sludge can form in the engine due to infrequent oil changes, poor oil quality, or engine overheating, leading to poor lubrication and potential engine damage.
Misfiring cylinders
Misfiring can be caused by faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors, resulting in poor engine performance and reduced fuel efficiency.
Coolant leaks
Coolant leaks can occur due to deteriorating hoses, a failing water pump, or a damaged radiator, leading to engine overheating and potential engine damage.
Timing chain tensioner failure
The timing chain tensioner may wear out over time, causing improper timing and potentially catastrophic engine damage if not addressed.
Crankshaft position sensor failure
A failing crankshaft position sensor can cause starting issues, stalling, and poor engine performance due to inaccurate readings of the crankshaft position.
Exhaust manifold cracks
The exhaust manifold can develop cracks due to thermal expansion and contraction, leading to exhaust leaks, increased emissions, and engine performance issues.
Valve lifter noise
Noisy valve lifters can indicate wear or lack of lubrication, potentially leading to poor engine performance and increased wear on other engine components.
Camshaft phaser issues
Problems with the camshaft phaser can cause timing issues, rough idling, and reduced engine performance due to improper valve timing.
