Most common problems, symptoms & fixes for the AGA engine.

Engine AGA commonly faces issues with oil consumption and timing chain tensioner wear. Diagnose excessive oil use by checking for blue smoke on startup and low oil levels. Timing chain noise or rattling at cold start signals tensioner problems. Preventive maintenance includes regular oil changes with high-quality synthetic oil and timely replacement of the timing chain tensioner and guides around 100,000 km. Address oil leaks promptly, especially from valve cover gaskets. If timing chain components are worn, replace them to avoid severe engine damage. Regularly inspect and clean the PCV valve to prevent pressure buildup. These steps ensure longevity and reliable performance of the AGA engine.
