Problems:

Brake fluid leak
Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, hoses, or master cylinder, leading to reduced braking performance.
Brake fade
Overheating of the brake fluid or brake pads can cause a temporary loss of braking power, especially during prolonged use.
Worn brake pads
Brake pads wear out over time and need regular replacement to ensure effective braking.
Master cylinder failure
The master cylinder can wear out or fail, leading to a loss of hydraulic pressure and braking capability.
Engine overheating
V-shaped engines can sometimes have cooling issues, especially if the radiator or water pump is not functioning properly.
Misfiring cylinders
A V6 engine may experience misfiring due to faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors.
Oil leaks
Older engines, especially from 1989, may develop oil leaks from gaskets, seals, or valve covers.
Timing chain/belt wear
Over time, the timing chain or belt can wear out, leading to engine timing issues and potential engine damage.
Fuel system issues
Fuel pumps, filters, or injectors can fail or clog, causing poor engine performance or stalling.
Exhaust manifold cracks
V-shaped engines might experience cracks in the exhaust manifold, leading to exhaust leaks and increased engine noise.
Vacuum leaks
Aged hoses and connectors can develop cracks or disconnections, causing vacuum leaks and poor engine performance.
