With a high-performance engine like the C32B1, the cooling system can be prone to leaks or failures, leading to overheating.
Ignition coil failure
V6 engines can experience ignition coil issues, leading to misfires and poor performance.
Fuel injector problems
Over time, fuel injectors can become clogged or fail, causing rough idling or difficulty starting the engine.
Exhaust manifold cracks
High-performance engines like the one in the NSX can develop cracks in the exhaust manifold due to thermal stress.
Valve train wear
The valve train components in a high-revving engine can wear out, leading to reduced performance and efficiency.
Engine mount failures
The engine mounts can deteriorate, causing vibrations and noise due to the engine's movement within the bay.
