Timing chain issues

The timing chain can stretch or fail over time, leading to misfires or engine damage.

Cooling system problems

The cooling system may develop issues such as thermostat failures or radiator leaks, leading to overheating.

Ignition coil failure

Ignition coils can wear out, causing misfires and poor engine performance.

Fuel injector problems

Fuel injectors may become clogged or fail, leading to rough idling and decreased fuel efficiency.

Carbon buildup

Direct injection engines can suffer from carbon buildup on intake valves, affecting performance.

Spark plug wear

Spark plugs may wear out, causing misfires and reduced fuel efficiency.

Sensor failures

Sensors like the MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor or O2 (Oxygen) sensor can fail, affecting engine performance.

Vacuum leaks

Vacuum lines can develop leaks, leading to rough idling and poor acceleration.

Catalytic converter issues

The catalytic converter can become clogged or fail, leading to increased emissions and decreased performance.
