Known Issues
Engine Bearing Wear:
Rod bearing failure can occur, especially in modified or hard-driven engines. Regular oil analysis and proper warm-up/cool-down are critical.
Turbocharger Failure:
Oil starvation or carbon buildup can lead to turbocharger failure. Proper maintenance and ensuring oil flow are key.
Ayc Pump Failure:
The AYC hydraulic pump can fail over time, leading to loss of yaw control functionality. Regular fluid checks and system diagnostics are recommended.
Rust And Corrosion:
Areas like fender lips, rear quarter panels, and suspension components can be susceptible to rust, especially in regions with harsh weather.
Clutch Wear:
High-performance nature of the car means the clutch can wear faster than standard vehicles, especially with aggressive driving.
