Most common problems, symptoms & fixes for the G4EH engine.

Engine G4EH commonly faces issues like timing chain wear, oil leaks, and sensor failures. Diagnosis involves checking for rattling noises indicating timing chain slack and inspecting for oil leaks around valve covers and gaskets. Regular oil changes with quality oil prevent premature wear and sludge buildup. To prevent sensor-related problems, periodically clean or replace the oxygen and coolant temperature sensors. If timing chain wear is detected, replace it promptly to avoid engine damage. Address oil leaks by replacing worn gaskets and seals. Maintaining proper coolant levels and using recommended fluids also helps prolong engine life and reliability.
