Oil leaks
With age, gaskets and seals can wear out, leading to oil leaks around the valve cover or oil pan.
Fuel injector problems
The electronic fuel injection system may have issues such as clogged or malfunctioning fuel injectors, affecting engine performance.
Vacuum leaks
Aging vacuum lines can crack or become disconnected, leading to performance problems and rough idling.
Timing chain wear
Over time, the timing chain can stretch or wear, causing timing issues and potentially severe engine damage if not addressed.
Ignition system failures
Problems with the distributor, spark plugs, or ignition coils can lead to misfires and poor engine performance.
Cooling system failures
Components like the radiator, water pump, and hoses may deteriorate, leading to coolant leaks and overheating.
Carbon build-up
Over time, carbon deposits can accumulate in the intake manifold and on the intake valves, reducing engine efficiency.
Sensor failures
Sensors critical to the electronic fuel injection system, such as the oxygen sensor or mass airflow sensor, can fail and cause poor fuel economy and performance issues.
Worn engine mounts
Engine mounts can degrade over time, leading to excessive engine movement and vibrations.
