Problems:
Oil leaks
Over time, gaskets and seals can deteriorate and cause oil leaks, which can lead to low oil levels and potential engine damage.
Overheating
Issues with the cooling system, such as a faulty thermostat, radiator problems, or a water pump failure, can cause the engine to overheat.
Poor fuel efficiency
Dirty fuel injectors, a clogged air filter, or a malfunctioning oxygen sensor can reduce fuel efficiency.
Rough idling
Can be caused by issues such as vacuum leaks, dirty or faulty spark plugs, or a malfunctioning idle air control valve.
Loss of power
Could be due to problems with the fuel system, exhaust system, or ignition system, leading to reduced engine performance.
Timing belt failure
If the timing belt is not replaced at recommended intervals, it can break and cause severe engine damage.
Engine knocking
Often caused by using low-octane fuel or carbon buildup in the combustion chamber, leading to pre-ignition or detonation.
Check engine light
Can be triggered by a variety of issues, including a faulty sensor, emissions problems, or engine misfires.
