Most common problems:

Oil leaks

Over time, gaskets and seals in the V8 engines can deteriorate, leading to oil leaks.

Timing chain issues

The timing chain can stretch or the tensioner could fail, causing rattling noises and potential engine damage.

Misfires

Spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors can fail, leading to engine misfires.

Overheating

Cooling system issues such as a failing water pump, radiator, or thermostat can cause the engine to overheat.

Mass air flow (maf) sensor failure

A faulty MAF sensor can cause poor engine performance and reduced fuel efficiency.

Vacuum leaks

Vacuum hoses can become brittle and crack, leading to air leaks and engine performance issues.
