Most common problems:

Oil leaks

V-shaped engines, like the V35A-FTS, are prone to oil leaks due to the complexity of the engine design and numerous gaskets and seals.

Turbocharger issues

The V35A-FTS features a turbocharger, which can suffer from problems like bearing wear, oil contamination, and boost control issues.

Carbon build-up

With a PORT + DIRECT injection system, carbon build-up on intake valves can occur, affecting performance and efficiency.

Timing chain wear

Over time, the timing chain in V-shaped engines may stretch or wear, leading to timing issues and potentially severe engine damage.

Cooling system problems

The complexity and compactness of V-shaped engines can lead to hotspots and cooling inefficiencies, causing potential overheating issues.

Misfiring

V6 engines can experience misfires due to issues with ignition coils, spark plugs, or fuel injectors, which can be exacerbated by the engine's configuration.

Engine mount wear

The weight and torque of a V6 engine can lead to faster wear and tear on engine mounts, causing vibrations and noise.
