Most common problems:

Dynamic brake support (dbs) issues

Dynamic Brake Support systems can sometimes experience sensor malfunctions, leading to false activations or failures to activate when needed.

Oil cooler leaks

The OM 642 engine is known to have issues with oil cooler seals which can degrade over time and cause oil leaks.

Diesel particulate filter (dpf) problems

The DPF can become clogged if the vehicle is frequently used for short trips, leading to poor performance and increased emissions.

Turbocharger failure

Turbocharger issues can arise due to carbon buildup or oil contamination, leading to reduced engine performance.

Injector problems

Fuel injectors may fail or become clogged, causing rough idling, reduced fuel efficiency, and poor engine performance.

Glow plug issues

Problems with glow plugs or the glow plug control module can lead to difficulties starting the engine, particularly in cold weather.

Egr valve malfunction

The EGR valve can become clogged with soot and carbon deposits, causing reduced engine efficiency and increased emissions.

Timing chain stretch

The timing chain can stretch over time, leading to poor engine timing, unusual noises, and potential engine damage if not addressed.

Brake assist sensor issues

Sensors related to the Brake Assist system might fail or give inaccurate readings, affecting the performance of the Brake Assist feature.

Crankshaft position sensor failure

A faulty crankshaft position sensor can cause the engine to stall or not start at all, leading to significant inconvenience and potential safety issues.
