Problems:
Oil leaks
V-shaped engines, like the AM11, are prone to oil leaks due to their complex design and larger gasket surfaces.
Cooling system issues
The complexity of the V12 engine can lead to cooling system failures, including radiator and thermostat problems.
Timing chain problems
V12 engines often face timing chain tensioner wear, which can lead to chain slack and potentially catastrophic engine failure.
Misfires
Complexity and number of cylinders increase the chance of ignition coil or spark plug failures, causing engine misfires.
Fuel injector failures
High-performance engines, like the AM11, can suffer from fuel injector clogs or failures, leading to poor performance and fuel efficiency.
Exhaust system problems
Due to the high power output, the exhaust system can suffer from cracks and leaks, affecting performance and emissions.
Sensor malfunctions
Multiple sensors in a V12 engine can fail, leading to incorrect readings and engine management issues.
Excessive heat
The high power output of a V12 engine can result in overheating issues, especially if the cooling system is not well-maintained.
