Most common problems:

Oil consumption

The K24A2 engine is known for higher-than-usual oil consumption, which can be due to worn piston rings or valve seals.

Timing chain wear

Over time, the timing chain can stretch or the tensioner can fail, leading to rattling noises and potential engine timing issues.

Vtc actuator noise

The Variable Timing Control (VTC) actuator can develop a rattling noise, especially on cold starts, which may require replacement.

Engine mount wear

Engine mounts can deteriorate over time, causing excessive engine vibration and noise.

Valve adjustment

The K24A2 engine may require periodic valve adjustments to maintain performance and prevent valve noise.

Cooling system issues

Problems with the radiator, thermostat, or water pump can lead to overheating issues.

Fuel injector problems

Clogged or malfunctioning fuel injectors can lead to poor engine performance and reduced fuel efficiency.

Head gasket failure

While less common, head gasket issues can occur, leading to coolant leaks and potential overheating.
