Known Issues

Engine Sludge Build Up:

The 4G64 engine, particularly if not maintained with frequent oil changes, can be prone to oil sludge buildup, leading to lubrication issues. Regular oil changes with quality oil are critical.

Transmission Problems Auto:

Some automatic transmissions may experience occasional harsh shifting or delayed engagement. Fluid changes are important. Turbo models with 5-speed manual are generally robust but require proper clutch maintenance.

Suspension Wear:

Common wear items include ball joints, tie rod ends, and control arm bushings, especially on higher mileage vehicles. Strut mounts and bearings can also wear out.

Electrical Gremlins:

As with many vehicles of this era, minor electrical issues can arise, such as window regulator failures, power lock issues, or sensor faults. Comprehensive wiring diagrams in the manual are invaluable.

Catalytic Converter Failure:

Can occur due to engine issues (e.g., oil consumption, misfires) or simply age. Symptoms include loss of power and rattling noise.

Exhaust Manifold Cracks:

Some owners have reported exhaust manifold cracks, particularly on the V6 engines, leading to exhaust leaks and noise.
