The high-performance V-shaped engine may experience overheating issues, especially under extreme driving conditions or due to cooling system failures.

The turbocharged (TC) nature of the engine can lead to turbocharger wear and failure, resulting in reduced power and efficiency.

The direct fuel injection system (DIRECT FUEL INJECTION) could develop issues such as clogged injectors or fuel pump failures, leading to poor engine performance.

Prolonged use may cause the timing chain to stretch or wear, which can affect engine timing and lead to potential engine damage.

The high-performance nature of the AMG GT's engine might result in higher oil consumption, requiring frequent oil top-ups and monitoring.

Issues with the ignition system or fuel delivery can cause engine misfires, which can damage the engine if not addressed promptly.

The complex cooling system essential for a high-performance engine can fail, leading to overheating and potential engine damage.

Various sensors (such as oxygen sensors, MAF sensors) critical for engine management may fail over time, causing erratic engine performance.

The vehicle lacks a dynamic brake support system, which can assist with emergency braking by amplifying braking force.

The V-shaped, 8-cylinder configuration with direct fuel injection and turbocharging (AM-7, TC) can make the engine more complex and potentially more prone to issues related to fuel delivery, turbocharging, and overall maintenance.

With an engine brake horsepower (hp) of 469, high-performance engines like this are more susceptible to wear and tear, and components may require more frequent servicing and replacement.

Being manufactured by Daimler, parts and servicing could be more costly and less readily available compared to more common engines.

The inclusion of direct fuel injection and other advanced technologies may lead to potential issues with fuel injectors, high-pressure fuel pumps, and related components.

Turbocharged engines are prone to issues such as turbo lag, turbo failure, and increased engine temperatures, which can affect overall engine longevity.

High-performance engines like the M178, especially with direct fuel injection, can be less fuel-efficient and more prone to carbon buildup within the engine.

High-performance and complex engines generally require more frequent maintenance intervals, including oil changes, spark plug replacements, and other routine checks.

The lack of Dynamic Brake Support (DBS) means the vehicle does not have an automated system to assist with emergency braking, potentially reducing safety during sudden stops.

The V-shaped configuration and advanced features like direct fuel injection and turbocharging (TC) in the M178 engine can lead to more complex and costly maintenance and repairs.

High-performance engines like the 577 hp M178 tend to have lower fuel efficiency, which could result in higher fuel costs.

High horsepower engines often experience more stress and wear, potentially leading to a shorter engine lifespan if not meticulously maintained.

Premium brands like Mercedes-Benz often have higher costs for parts and labor, contributing to higher overall maintenance expenses.
