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

Engine ERB, a 3.6 V6 used in Lancia Thema models, is generally robust but can face issues like coolant leaks, ignition coil failures, and carbon buildup on intake valves. For diagnosis, monitor coolant levels and inspect for leaks around the water pump and hoses. Misfires or rough idling may indicate faulty ignition coils; use an OBD-II scanner to check error codes. Preventive maintenance includes regular coolant changes, using quality spark plugs, and periodic intake cleaning to avoid carbon deposits. Solutions involve replacing worn ignition coils, repairing leaks promptly, and performing intake valve cleaning to maintain performance and reliability.
