Overheating of the brake components can cause brake fade, which reduces the effectiveness of the brakes, especially during prolonged use.
Warped brake rotors
Repeated heavy braking can cause the brake rotors to warp, leading to vibration and reduced braking efficiency.
Brake pedal spongy or soft
Air trapped in the hydraulic brake lines can cause the brake pedal to feel spongy or soft, reducing braking effectiveness.
Engine misfire
The V-shaped L31 engine with 8 cylinders may experience misfires due to issues with spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors.
Oil leaks
V-shaped engines like the WRN L31 can develop oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets, oil pan gasket, or rear main seal.
