Problems:
Brake fluid leaks
Brake fluid leaks can reduce braking efficiency and lead to brake failure, often caused by worn seals or damaged brake lines in the hydraulic system.
Brake pad wear
Over time, brake pads wear down and become less effective, necessitating regular inspection and replacement.
Brake rotor issues
Warped or damaged rotors can cause vibrations or reduced braking performance, often due to excessive heat or wear.
Abs (anti-lock braking system) malfunctions
ABS sensors or modules can fail, leading to loss of the anti-lock braking feature, which can be dangerous in emergency braking situations.
Brake pedal feel issues
A soft or spongy brake pedal can indicate air in the brake lines, low brake fluid, or a problem with the master cylinder.
Brake caliper problems
Sticking or seized calipers can cause uneven braking and increased wear on brake pads and rotors.
Hydraulic system failure
A failure in the hydraulic system, such as a master cylinder or brake booster failure, can significantly reduce braking performance.
Dynamic brake support (dbs) issues
Malfunctions in the DBS system can result in reduced automated braking assistance, which is crucial for safety.
Engine misfire
Misfires can occur due to faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors, leading to poor engine performance and reduced fuel efficiency.
Variable valve timing (vvt) problems
Issues with the VVT system can cause rough idling, reduced power, and poor fuel economy.
Direct injection system issues
Problems with the SIDI system, such as clogged injectors, can lead to poor fuel delivery and engine performance.
Active fuel management (afm) system failures
AFM system issues can result in poor fuel economy, reduced power, and engine noise.
E85 compatibility problems
Using E85 fuel can sometimes cause issues if the fuel system components are not fully compatible or if there are contaminants in the fuel.
Aluminum engine block issues
Aluminum engine blocks can be susceptible to corrosion and overheating if not properly maintained.
