Most common problems:

Engine misfire

Misfires in the engine can be caused by various factors including faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors. This can lead to poor engine performance and reduced fuel efficiency.

Oil consumption

Higher-than-normal oil consumption can be a common issue, possibly due to worn piston rings or valve seals, leading to reduced engine performance and potential damage if not addressed.

Engine knocking

This can be caused by using the wrong type of fuel, poor engine timing, or issues with the engine's internals such as the bearings or pistons.

Overheating

Overheating can be due to a malfunctioning cooling system, such as a faulty radiator, thermostat, or water pump, which can lead to serious engine damage if not resolved promptly.

Timing chain/belt issues

Problems with the timing chain or belt can lead to engine timing issues, which can cause poor performance or even engine failure if the belt or chain breaks.

Fuel system problems

Issues with the fuel pump or fuel injectors can cause poor engine performance, stalling, or difficulty starting the vehicle.

Exhaust system issues

Problems with the exhaust system, such as a clogged catalytic converter or damaged oxygen sensors, can affect engine performance and emissions.

Electrical problems

Issues with the engine's electrical system, such as a faulty alternator or battery, can lead to starting problems or intermittent electrical failures.

Sensor failures

Malfunctioning sensors (e.g., mass airflow sensor, oxygen sensor) can lead to incorrect air-fuel mixture, resulting in poor engine performance and increased emissions.
