Most common problems:

Oil leaks

V6 engines often suffer from oil leaks, which can stem from valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, or rear main seals.

Cooling system failures

The compact design of V-shaped engines can lead to inadequate cooling, causing overheating and related issues.

Timing chain/belt wear

The timing chain or belt in a V6 may wear out over time, leading to potential engine timing issues or failure.

Fuel injector problems

V6 engines, including those in the Plymouth Prowler, may experience clogged or malfunctioning fuel injectors, leading to poor engine performance.

Ignition coil failure

V6 engines often have multiple ignition coils, which can fail and cause misfires or rough engine operation.

Exhaust manifold cracks

The V-design can cause uneven heating, leading to cracks in the exhaust manifold over time.

Intake manifold gasket leaks

The intake manifold gaskets can fail, leading to coolant or air leaks that affect engine performance.

Camshaft position sensor issues

Failure of the camshaft position sensor can lead to poor engine performance and difficulty starting.

Crankshaft position sensor failure

A failing crankshaft position sensor can cause stalling, misfires, or the engine not starting.

Egr valve problems

The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve can become clogged or fail, leading to increased emissions and poor engine performance.

Serpentine belt wear

The serpentine belt in V6 engines can wear out, leading to potential failures of various engine accessories such as the alternator and power steering pump.

Throttle body issues

The throttle body may become dirty or malfunction, affecting engine idling and acceleration.
