Most common problems:

Oil leaks

Oil leaks can occur from the front cover, camshaft cover, or timing chain cover, leading to oil spots under the vehicle and potential engine damage.

High oil consumption

Some owners report that the engine consumes more oil than expected, which requires frequent oil level checks and top-ups.

Valve spring failure

The valve springs can fail prematurely, which may cause engine misfires, poor performance, and potentially severe engine damage if not addressed.

Fuel pump issues

The high-pressure fuel pump may be prone to failure, leading to rough idling, stalling, and poor acceleration.

Engine tuning and ecu problems

Some owners experience issues with the engine control unit (ECU) leading to erratic behavior and performance issues, often requiring reprogramming or replacement.

Crickets noise from fuel injector

A high-pitched squealing or chirping noise, often described as "crickets," can emanate from the direct fuel injectors, which is generally harmless but annoying.

Condensation in tail lights

Water condensation can accumulate in the tail lights, leading to visibility issues and potential electrical problems.

Suspension noises

Owners report clunking or squeaking noises coming from the suspension, often related to worn bushings or struts.

Poor quality interior materials

Some interior components may wear out or degrade quickly, leading to a less-than-premium feel and potential rattling noises.

Weak paint and body panels

The paint and body panels may chip or dent easily, leading to aesthetic issues and potential rusting if not addressed promptly.
