Problems:

Oil leaks
Oil leaks can develop around the valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket, and other engine seals, leading to oil loss and potential engine damage if not addressed.
Overheating
The cooling system, including the radiator, thermostat, and water pump, may fail or become clogged, causing the engine to overheat.
Timing belt failure
The timing belt can wear out or break, leading to significant engine damage if not replaced at recommended intervals.
Ignition system issues
Problems with the ignition coil, distributor, or spark plugs can cause misfires, poor performance, and difficulty starting the engine.
Fuel system problems
Clogged fuel injectors or a failing fuel pump can lead to poor fuel delivery, resulting in reduced engine performance and efficiency.
Vacuum leaks
Vacuum hoses and fittings can develop leaks over time, causing rough idling, poor acceleration, and increased emissions.
Head gasket failure
A blown head gasket can lead to coolant and oil mixing, resulting in overheating, white smoke from the exhaust, and potential engine damage.
Exhaust system issues
Problems with the exhaust manifold, catalytic converter, or exhaust pipes can lead to increased emissions, noise, and reduced engine efficiency.
Sensor failures
Faulty sensors, such as the oxygen sensor or mass airflow sensor, can cause incorrect air-fuel mixture readings, leading to poor engine performance and increased emissions.
