Fuel system issues
Problems with the fuel injectors or fuel pump can lead to poor engine performance or starting difficulties.
Exhaust manifold cracks

Timing chain wear
Over time, the timing chain and related components can wear out, leading to poor engine timing and potential damage.
Sensor failures
Various engine sensors, such as the oxygen sensor or mass air flow sensor, can fail and affect engine performance and fuel efficiency.
Valve train noise
The V10 engine can develop valve train noise due to wear in the lifters, rocker arms, or valve springs.
