Most common problems:

Oil leaks

W-shaped engines, like the one in the Bentley Continental, can be prone to oil leaks due to the complex gasket surfaces.

Turbocharger issues

High-performance engines often have turbochargers that can wear out or fail, leading to a loss in power and efficiency.

Carbon build-up

Direct injection engines can suffer from carbon build-up on the intake valves, affecting performance and fuel efficiency.

Cooling system failures

High-performance engines generate more heat, potentially stressing the cooling system and causing failures.

Timing chain problems

W-shaped engines with complex timing mechanisms can experience tensioner or chain wear, leading to misfires or engine damage.

Fuel injector problems

LEV II compliant engines have precise fuel injection systems that can become clogged or fail, impacting performance.

Ignition coil failures

High-output engines like the 626 hp in this Bentley can experience ignition coil failures, leading to misfires.

Sensor failures

Modern engines with advanced electronics may suffer from sensor failures, causing incorrect readings and poor engine performance.

Exhaust system issues

High-performance engines can cause stress on the exhaust system, leading to cracks or failures in the exhaust manifold or catalytic converters.
