Most common problems:

Brake system leak

Air brake systems can suffer from leaks in the air lines, valves, or air compressor, leading to reduced braking efficiency.

Air compressor failure

The air compressor might fail or become inefficient, resulting in inadequate air pressure for the brake system.

Brake fade

Continuous heavy braking can cause the brake components to overheat, leading to reduced braking performance.

Contaminated brake lines

Moisture or debris in the air brake lines can cause corrosion or blockages, impairing the brake system's effectiveness.

Worn brake pads or shoes

Regular wear and tear can lead to thinning of brake pads or shoes, necessitating replacement to maintain brake performance.

Slack adjuster issues

Manual or automatic slack adjusters may become misaligned or fail, affecting the brake system's ability to maintain proper tension.

Governor problems

The governor that controls the air compressor might malfunction, leading to incorrect air pressure levels in the brake system.

Brake chamber failure

The brake chambers can develop leaks or mechanical issues, reducing the force applied to the brake pads or shoes.

Abs malfunction

Anti-lock brake systems (if equipped) can develop sensor or module issues, leading to brake system warning lights or reduced ABS functionality.

Air dryer issues

The air dryer, which removes moisture from the brake system, can become clogged or fail, allowing moisture to enter and potentially damage the system.

Engine overheating

The DOAD 6V engine might suffer from overheating due to coolant leaks, radiator issues, or thermostat failure.

Oil leaks

Engine oil leaks can occur due to worn seals, gaskets, or improper installation, leading to reduced lubrication and potential engine damage.

Fuel system problems

Issues with fuel injectors, fuel pump, or clogged fuel filters can affect the engine's performance and efficiency.

Turbocharger failure

If equipped with a turbocharger, it may fail due to oil contamination, bearing wear, or excessive heat, resulting in reduced engine power.

Timing belt/chain issues

A worn or broken timing belt/chain can lead to engine misfires, reduced performance, or complete engine failure.

Egr valve problems

The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve might become clogged or fail, affecting emissions and engine performance.

Dpf (diesel particulate filter) clogs

The DPF can become clogged with soot, leading to reduced engine efficiency and potential engine damage if not properly maintained.

Injector problems

Fuel injectors may become clogged or fail, leading to poor fuel delivery, misfires, and reduced engine performance.

Sensor failures

Various engine sensors (e.g., oxygen sensor, MAF sensor) can fail or provide incorrect readings, causing engine management issues and reduced performance.

Exhaust manifold leaks

Leaks in the exhaust manifold can lead to reduced engine efficiency and increased emissions, as well as potential damage to surrounding components.

Battery and electrical issues

Problems with the vehicle's battery or electrical system can lead to starting issues, poor engine performance, or other electrical malfunctions.
