Most common problems:

Oil leaks

Common in Volvo engines, particularly around the oil filter housing, oil pan gasket, and valve cover gasket.

Turbocharger issues

The B6304T4 engine is turbocharged and can suffer from turbo failure or issues like boost leaks or worn bearings.

Cooling system problems

Problems such as failing water pumps, radiators, or thermostats can lead to overheating.

Timing belt failure

If not replaced at recommended intervals, the timing belt can fail, causing severe engine damage.

Pcv system failure

The positive crankcase ventilation system can clog, leading to increased oil consumption and pressure build-up.

Ignition coil failure

Misfires and rough running can occur when ignition coils fail, which is common in Volvo engines.

Fuel injector problems

Can lead to poor fuel economy and engine performance issues.

Sensor failures

Common failures include the MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor, oxygen sensors, and camshaft position sensors.

Carbon build-up

On intake valves and combustion chambers, causing performance issues and rough idling.

Transmission issues

Although not directly an engine problem, transmission issues can affect overall vehicle performance; common in automatic models.
