Problems:

Oil leaks
Older engines, especially those with high mileage like a 2006 model, are prone to developing oil leaks due to worn gaskets and seals.
Engine misfires
Engine misfires can occur due to issues with the ignition system, fuel injectors, or even carbon buildup in the cylinders, especially in a V12 engine.
Cooling system problems
The complexity of a V12 engine can lead to cooling system issues such as radiator leaks, thermostat failures, or water pump malfunctions.
Timing chain/belt issues
High-mileage engines may experience timing chain or belt wear, leading to poor engine performance or even engine failure if not addressed.
Fuel system problems
Clogged fuel injectors or fuel pump failures are common issues that can affect engine performance and fuel efficiency.
Sensor failures
Older vehicles may face issues with engine sensors like the oxygen sensor, MAF sensor, or crankshaft position sensor, which can lead to poor performance and increased emissions.
Exhaust system issues
The emissions control system may develop faults, leading to increased emissions and potentially failing emissions tests.
