Most common problems:

Oil leaks

V-shaped engines, especially high-performance ones like the Aston Martin Vantage, are prone to oil leaks due to the complexity of the engine design and high operating pressures.

Turbocharger issues

Twin-turbo engines can suffer from turbo lag, turbo failure, or excessive oil consumption if not properly maintained.

Overheating

High-performance engines with turbochargers can overheat if the cooling system is inadequate or if there is a failure in the cooling components.

Carbon build-up

Direct injection engines can experience carbon build-up on intake valves, which can affect engine performance and efficiency.

Ignition coil failure

High-performance engines with multiple cylinders, like the V8, can have issues with ignition coils, leading to misfires and reduced performance.

Timing chain problems

V-shaped engines may have issues with timing chain wear or failure, which can lead to severe engine damage if not addressed promptly.

Fuel injector issues

High-pressure fuel injectors in turbocharged engines can become clogged or fail, leading to poor engine performance or fuel economy.
