Most common problems:

Overheating

Older cooling systems may struggle to keep up, especially with a V6 configuration. Radiators, hoses, and water pumps may need frequent checks and replacements.

Oil leaks

Gaskets and seals can wear out over time, leading to oil leaks, particularly around the valve cover and oil pan.

Timing belt issues

The timing belt may be prone to wear and tear, which can lead to catastrophic engine failure if not replaced at recommended intervals.

Fuel injector problems

Fuel injectors can become clogged or fail, leading to poor engine performance and fuel economy.

Ignition system failures

Components like spark plugs, ignition coils, and distributors may wear out, causing misfires or starting issues.

Vacuum leaks

Rubber hoses and vacuum lines can deteriorate, leading to poor engine performance and stalling.

Exhaust manifold cracks

The exhaust manifold may develop cracks over time, causing exhaust leaks and reducing engine efficiency.
