Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, calipers, or master cylinder, leading to reduced braking performance.

Brake fade

Continuous or heavy braking can cause the brake fluid to overheat, resulting in a temporary loss of braking power.

Abs sensor issues

The ABS sensors can fail or get dirty, causing the anti-lock braking system to malfunction.

Warped brake rotors

Over time, the brake rotors can warp due to heat and stress, causing vibrations and reduced braking efficiency.

Worn brake pads

Brake pads can wear out over time and need to be replaced to maintain effective braking performance.

Sticking brake calipers

The brake calipers can stick, causing uneven braking and increased wear on the brake pads and rotors.

Vacuum leaks

In a V-shaped engine configuration, vacuum leaks can occur in the intake manifold or vacuum hoses, affecting engine performance and brake booster operation.

Spark plug issues

With an EFI system and 10 cylinders, spark plugs can wear out or foul, leading to misfires and reduced engine power.

Fuel injector problems

EFI systems can develop issues with fuel injectors, such as clogs or leaks, affecting engine performance.

Timing chain wear

The timing chain in a V-shaped engine can stretch or wear out over time, leading to poor engine performance or even engine failure.

Oil leaks

V-shaped engines can develop oil leaks from valve covers, oil pan gaskets, or rear main seals, leading to reduced lubrication and potential engine damage.

Cooling system failures

The cooling system can develop leaks or blockages, leading to overheating and potential engine damage.
