Most common problems:

Oil leaks

V-shaped engines like the AM11 can develop oil leaks due to the complex nature of their design and the high pressures involved.

Misfiring

The 12-cylinder configuration can sometimes lead to misfiring issues, often due to faulty spark plugs or ignition coils.

Overheating

High-performance engines such as the Aston Martin AM11 can overheat if the cooling system is not maintained properly.

Timing chain wear

With the high power output (422 kW), the timing chain can wear out over time, leading to potential engine timing issues.

Fuel injector problems

The complex fuel delivery system can suffer from clogged or malfunctioning fuel injectors, affecting engine performance.

Carbon buildup

Direct injection engines like the AM11 can experience carbon buildup on intake valves, leading to reduced performance and efficiency.

Sensor failures

Advanced engines with numerous sensors can experience failures in components like the oxygen sensor or MAF sensor, leading to poor engine performance.

Alternator issues

The alternator in high-performance cars can sometimes fail, leading to battery charging problems and electrical issues.

Coolant leaks

The cooling system can develop leaks, particularly in the hoses and radiator, which can lead to engine overheating.

Vacuum leaks

V-shaped engines can develop vacuum leaks due to the numerous seals and gaskets, affecting engine performance and fuel efficiency.
