Problems:

Engine misfire
Misfires can occur due to issues with the ignition system, fuel delivery, or internal engine components. Misfiring can lead to rough idling, poor performance, and increased emissions.
Oil leaks
V-Shaped engines, like the Td6, can develop oil leaks from valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, or other seals. These leaks can result in oil loss and potential engine damage if not addressed.
Turbocharger failure
Turbocharged engines, such as the Td6, may experience turbocharger issues, including bearing failure or wastegate problems. This can lead to a loss of power and increased exhaust emissions.
Dpf (diesel particulate filter) clogging
Diesel engines often have a DPF to reduce emissions, which can become clogged over time. This results in reduced engine performance and increased fuel consumption.
Timing chain wear
Over time, the timing chain can stretch or wear out, causing engine timing issues. This can lead to poor engine performance or even catastrophic engine failure if the chain breaks.
Egr valve problems
The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve can become clogged with carbon deposits, leading to reduced engine efficiency and increased emissions.
Fuel injector issues
Diesel engines rely heavily on precise fuel injection. Issues with injectors, such as clogging or failure, can lead to poor engine performance and higher emissions.
Cooling system failures
Cooling issues, including radiator or water pump failures, can lead to overheating. Overheating can cause severe engine damage if not promptly addressed.
Glow plug failure
Diesel engines use glow plugs to help start the engine in cold conditions. Faulty glow plugs can lead to hard starting and poor performance in cold weather.
