Problems:

Brake fluid leaks
Hydraulic brake systems rely on fluid pressure, and leaks can lead to reduced braking performance or total brake failure.
Brake fade
Extended use, especially under heavy load or high-speed conditions, can cause overheating and reduced braking effectiveness.
Abs sensor malfunction
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) sensors can fail, leading to loss of ABS functionality.
Brake pad wear
Brake pads wear out over time and require regular replacement to maintain effective braking.
Turbocharger issues
The turbocharger can fail or underperform due to component wear, oil contamination, or other mechanical issues.
Variable geometry turbocharger (vgt) problems
VGT mechanisms can stick or fail, leading to reduced engine performance and efficiency.
Engine overheating
Issues with the cooling system, such as a faulty radiator or water pump, can cause the engine to overheat.
Injector problems
The Common Rail Injection (CRI) system can suffer from injector failures or clogs, affecting engine performance.
Egr valve issues
The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve can become clogged, leading to poor engine performance and increased emissions.
Check engine light activation
Various sensor or component failures can trigger the check engine light, requiring diagnostic attention.
Fuel system contamination
Contaminated fuel can cause clogging and damage to the fuel system, affecting engine performance.
Timing chain wear
Over time, the timing chain can wear out, leading to potential engine timing issues and performance loss.
